Court of Appeals of Kentucky · decided 1802-05-01

<p>Where the parties have pleaded to issue, a judgment for plaintiff, on motion, without a trial or waiver of the issue, is erroneous.</p>

Decided 1802-05-01

¶1It appears in this case that an issue was made up in the cause, and that a judgment was given for the plaintiff, on motion, without trying the issue, Or without the issue being waived by the parties. Therefore, it is considered by the court, that the judgment aforesaid be reversed and set aside; that the cause be remanded to the court from whence it came, to be placed on the issue docket, with directions to proceed to a trial of the issue, and that the plaintiff recover of the defendant his costs in this behalf expended, which is ordered to be certified to the said court.
