Point

Any question, particularly of law, arising in connection with the determination of a cause. Points for the court's charge are prenerally isolated, often abstract, propositions, framed not so much upon the real aspect of the evidence as to express the extremes of the case, and lead to the expression of opinion upon the theoretical rather than upon the practical questions.^ Statutes require that the answer of the judge or court afiirming or rejecting a point as a correct statement of law shall be reduced to writing.
