Culp v. Olive

1 Citing case

  1. Keller v. State Farm Ins. Co.

    180 Ill. App. 3d 539 (Ill. App. Ct. 1989)   Cited 53 times
    Finding that "there is no dispute in the instant case that there was a mistake . . . and that it relates to a material feature of the contract [however,] [p]laintiff presented no evidence as to whether enforcement of the contract would be unconscionable."

    Objections to instructions must be made with sufficient particularity to afford the court identity of the error relied upon. ( Mathis v. Burlington Northern, Inc. (1978), 67 Ill. App.3d 1009, 1011, 385 N.E.2d 780, 782.) Objections must specifically point out wherein the instruction is an incorrect statement of the law or not applicable. ( Culp v. Olive (1964), 45 Ill. App.2d 396, 406, 195 N.E.2d 729, 734.) The failure to specifically set forth the error with sufficient clarity to identify the issue constitutes a waiver of objections to the instruction.
