City of New York Municipal Court · decided 1896-01-15

<p>Evidence — Harmless error.</p> <p>Defects in the formal proofs for the admission of photographs in evidence are cured by an admission that the photographs are correct.</p>

Decided 1896-01-15

McCarthy, J.

¶1In regard to the' formal proof on the admission of the photographs offered in evidence we think no harm was done, since the plaintiff afterwards practically admitted that these photographs were correct and represented only one portion of the building.

¶2*468This was as claimed for by the defendant, and if there was any defect at the time they were offered and admitted in evidence, that was cured by the admission.

¶3The case was fairly and fully presented by both sides on the facts, and the charge of the trial justice was clear and concise, to which no objection was taken.

¶4We find no substantial errors, and, therefore, judgment must be affirmed, with costs.

¶5Eotty, J., concurs.

¶6Judgment affirmed, with costs.
