40 Ill. 112
Decided April 15, 1865
Illinois Supreme Court · decided 1865-04-15
On the second day of the April Term, 1865, of this court, Mr. Stephen R. Moore, counsel for the appellant, moved the court for a continuance of this cause, upon his affidavit, as follows: That he cannot prepare the cause for trial at the present term. The cause was tried in the Winnebago Circuit Court at the last February Term, and a decree entered during the latter part of the month of February.
Decided 1865-04-15
¶1We do not think there are sufficient grounds for a continuance. By the use of reasonable diligence we think the case may be prepared for a hearing at the present term.. We will, however, extend the time for filing an abstract of the record until the fifteenth day of the term.
¶2Continuance refused.
