Montana Supreme Court

Decided October 8, 1925

Montana Supreme Court · decided 1925-10-08

Relies on Samuell v. Moore Mercantile Co. · Casey v. Thieviege · Charles Schatzlein Paint Co. v. Godin

Decided 1925-10-08

MR. JUSTICE STARK

¶1 delivered the opinion of the court.

¶2 This is an appeal from a judgment in favor of the defend- ant, entered upon an agreed statement of facts.

¶3 Section 3 of Rule X of this court, which now is and for many years past has been in force, requires, iriter alia, that the appellant’s brief shall contain (a) a concise abstract or statement of the case, presenting succinctly the questions involved and the manner in which they are raised; (b) a specification of errors relied upon, which shall be numbered and shall set out separately and particularly each error intended to be argued. Appellant’s brief in this case wholly ignores the requirements of this rule, in that it contains neither a statement of the case nor assignments of error.

¶4 From a cursory examination of the transcript it clearly appears that the judgment of the trial court was correct ■ and should be affirmed. Upon the authority of Schatzlein Paint Co. v. Godin, 24 Mont. 483, 62 Pac. 819, Casey v. Thieviege, 27 Mont. 516, 71 Pac. 757, Samuell v. Moore Merc. Co., 62 Mont. 232, 204 Pac. 376, and numerous other decisions of this court, which it is not necessary to cite, we consider that a *293 proper disposition of this case is to affirm the judgment, without discussion of the merits, and this is accordingly done.

¶5 Affirmed.

Mr. Chief Justice Callaway and Associate Justices Holloway, Galen and Matthews concur.
