Ex Parte Thorne

105 So. 711 | Ala. | 1925

We think the statement in the opinion of the Court of Appeals that refused charges requested in writing by defendant cannot be reviewed, where the bill of exceptions fails to disclose that it contains all the evidence, is too broad and needs some qualification. There may be refused charges which should properly be reviewed, though all the evidence does not appear, such as charges in no manner affected by that fact. Anniston Mfg. Co. v. Southern Ry. Co., 145 Ala. 351, 40 So. 965.

But the petition and brief in this cause do not point out that any refused charges in the instant case come within that class, and none of the charges are here discussed. Supreme Court rule 44, vol. 4, Code 1923. Under these circumstances we assume, in favor of the ruling of the Court of Appeals, that the refused charges are not reviewable for the reason pointed out by that court.

Let the writ be denied.

Writ denied.

ANDERSON, C. J., and SAYRE, GARDNER, and MILLER, JJ., concur.
