Hoadley v. Crow

Headnote

Whehe the transcript on appeal from an order denying a new trial contains no statement, settled or agreed upon, the order will be affirmed. An allegation embodied in the transcript, as an assignment of errors by the appellant that the first Judge omitted to settle a statement which was submitted to him, cannot be taken as a substitute for a statement, nor does it constitute any reason for reversing the judgment.

Appeal from the Ninth Judicial District.

This is an appeal from an order overruling a motion for a new trial. The transcript on appeal contains the judgment roll, and what purports to be the evidence given on the trial, and certain exceptions, but there is no statement, either on appeal or on motion, for new trial, either settled or agreed to. At the close of the transcript is a paper purporting to be a statement of points and assignment of errors, signed by appellant’s attorney, in which it is stated that a statement on motion for a new trial was preferred and served by him, and exceptions thereto filed by the respondent, and these papers submitted to the Judge for settlement, but that he had omitted to settle the same.
