Elliott v. Davis

Court of Appeals of Alabama
Jan 21, 1919
81 So. 139 (Ala. Crim. App. 1919)

Opinion

6 Div. 467.

January 21, 1919.

Appeal from Circuit Court, Tuscaloosa County; Henry B. Foster, Judge.

Action between J.J. Elliott and C.M. Davis. From a judgment denying motion for new trial, the former appeals. Affirmed.

Howard L. Smith and Allen Fisk, of Birmingham, for appellant.

Brown Ward, of Tuscaloosa, for appellee.


It is not necessary to a decision of this case to pass upon the numerous questions argued in brief. It does not appear from the record in this case that an exception was reserved to the ruling of the trial court on the motion for a new trial, which has been held to be necessary, and which, together with the evidence and the ruling of the trial court on the motion, should be incorporated in the bill of exceptions. Britton v. State, 15 Ala. App. 584, 74 So. 721; Empire Clothing Co. v. Roberts, Johnson Rand Shoe Co., ante, p. 86, 75 So. 635; King v. State, ante, p. 103, 75 So. 692; Ross v. State, ante, p. 393, 78 So. 309; Powell v. Folmar, 201 Ala. 271, 78 So. 47. For the above reason, the judgment must be affirmed.

Affirmed.
