RIPLEY v. JAUSSEN.
(Common Pleas of New York City and County, General Term.
August 1, 1894.)

Headnote

Action by Anna J. Ripley against Virginia Jaussen. J. F. Higgins, for appellant. W. W. Foster, for respondent.

Error, merely, does not suffice to support an appeal. To authorize a reversal, the error must have operated prejudicially to the appellant. No possible prejudice here resulted from the judgment rendered, for it merely accomplished what appellant was concededly willing to have occur at the time of the trial. The order must be affirmed, with costs.
