Elwell v. Bosshard
Elwell v. Bosshard
Opinion of the Court
This is an appeal from a judgment for damages in an action for assault and battery. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff for $300 compensatory damages and awarded no punitory damages.
The errors assigned.on the charge and refusal to charge cannot be reviewed for want of proper exceptions. The appellant filed a general exception to the entire charge. Much of the charge is concededly good^and so admitted by appellant; therefore the exception was not sufficient. A general exception was also filed to the refusal to charge. Counsel for appellant made several distinct requests embraced in separate and distinct propositions, some of which, at least, should not have been given; therefore the general exception to refusal to charge as requested was not sufficient.
