Nebraska Supreme Court · decided 1904-09-22

<p>Review. In an action at law in which no motion for new trial has been filed in the district court, this court will not consider the question of the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the judgment</p>

Affirmed · Decided 1904-09-22

Oldham, C.

¶1This was an action on a claim filed in the county court of Douglas county against the estate of Henry L. Collier, deceased. The claim was disallowed by the county court and an appeal was taken by the claimant to the district court, where on a trial de novo a judgment was rendered in favor of the executor of the estate and against the claimant, and the claimant brings error to this court.

¶2No motion for a new tidal was filed in the court below. This being an action at law, questions concerning errors alleged to have occurred during the progress of the trial will not be considered by this court in the absence of a motion for new trial in the court below. It is not claimed that the pleadings are insufficient to sustain the judgment. The question urged is as to the sufficiency of the testimony to support the judgment, but this question we cannot examine in the absence of a motion for a new trial.

¶3It is therefore recommended that the judgment of the district court be affirmed.

Ames and Letton, CC., concur.By the Court:

¶4For the reasons stated in the foregoing opinion, the judgment of the district court is

¶5Affirmed.
