¶1Complaint by Michael Hamill, against Philip A. Leever, for malicious prosecution and false imprisonment.
¶2An answer was filed, various rulings upon demurrers had, and exception taken; but, as the appellant has waived the discussion of these questions in his brief, we shall waive their statement and examination.
¶3Issues of fact were joined, a trial by jury had, and a verdict for appellee found.-
¶4A motion for a new trial was made, founded on the following causes:
¶51. The verdict is contrary to law;
¶62. The verdict is not sustained by evidence;
¶73. The damages are excessive; and,
¶84. The verdict is not sustained by sufficient evidence. Motion overruled; exception; appeal.
¶9¥e may dispose of the first assignment of error by saying, that no question of law occurring at the trial has been raised. The appellant discusses, in his brief, the admission of certain evidence to the jury, which he insists *424was incompetent; but be neither objected to it at the time it was offered, nor assigned its admission as a cause for a new trial. There is therefore no such question before us.
¶10The second and fourth assignments of error are the same. The only questions properly before us are: Does the evidence sustain the verdict? Are the damages excessive ?
¶11The evidence is too voluminous to copy, and too .diffuse to condense and present it fairly; but we have carefully read it all, and believe it fairly sustains the verdict. Nor can we say that it does not fairly support the amount of damages assessed.
¶12But the appellant insists that the evidence does not show a final determination of the prosecution complained of, and a discharge of the appellee therefrom. It is true, that no record evidence was shown of a final discharge of the appellee; but his arrest for larceny and imprisonment, at the instance of the appellant, are shown, and that the appellee appeared before the mayor in obedience to the writ; that, no prosecuting witness appearing, the case was continued; that he appeared again,, according to the continuance; that still no witness appeared against him, and no trial was had, but that he was. allowed to go at liberty; all of which was shown by parol evidence, without objection, and which stands uncontradicted.
¶13We think this is sufficient to authorize the jury to find! that the prosecution was at an end. At least, we can not. disturb the verdict on this ground, after it has been examined by, and received the sanction of, the court below-
¶14The iudgment is affirmed, with costs.
