Merrill v. Rollin

Wisconsin Supreme Court

Decided July 15, 1844

Wisconsin Supreme Court · decided 1844-07-15

<p>Wbit of Ebbob. A writ of error will not lie to an order overruling a motion for a continuance.</p>

Decided 1844-07-15

Miller, J.

¶1At the first term a demurrer was filed by defendants. At the second term the plaintiff obtained leave to amend his declaration, when the defendant pleaded issuably and filed an affidavit and motion for a continuance. The affidavit is in the form prescribed by the rules of court for the continuance of a cause at the first term.

¶2It is well settled that a writ of error does not lie upon an order overruling a motion for a continuance. The order of the court in this instance, was strictly correct. There is no error on the record, and the judgment must be affirmed, with costs.
