Appellate Court of Illinois

Decided March 8, 1897

Appellate Court of Illinois · decided 1897-03-08

<p>1. Error—In Denying Relief—What is Not.—It is not error to deny the relief to which an applicant shows no title.</p>

Affirmed · Decided 1897-03-08

]VIr. Justice Gary

¶1delivered the opinion oe the Court.

¶2The question argued by the parties is whether the provision for preferences for wages of laborers and servants, contained in Sec. 6 of the act of 1877, concerning assignments for benefit of creditors, is repealed, or other provisions made in substitution thereof, by the act of 1895 amending the act of 1887, to protect employes and laborers in their claims for wages.

¶3This record does not show that the appellants complied with the conditions of either the one or the other of the statutes referred to. We may not say that the County Court erred in denying relief to which the appellants show no title. We do not consider mere abstract questions of law.

¶4The order appealed from is affirmed.
