23 Kan. 340 | Kan. | 1880
The opinion of the court was delivered by
This was an action brought by H. H. Patten, against J. W. Gossett, for attorney’s fees for defending an action brought by Gossett, against his wife, Bridget C. Gossett, for a divorce. The only question in the case is, whether the plaintiff’s pleading (a bill of particulars filed with the justice of the peace'before whom this action was commenced) is fatally defective, or not. The plaintiff in error (Gossett) attempts to raise other questions, but as the case was submitted to the court below, without a jury, and as the court below made only a general finding in the case, and no motion, for a new trial was made, and the evidence has not all been brought to this court, we cannot consider such other questions. As to the necessity for a motion for a new trial, see Gruble v. Ryus, ante, p. 195, and cases there cited.
We think the bill of particulars is sufficient in every respect, except that it does not specifically state to whom the plaintiff, Patten, first gave the credit for his services, and i't does not state why Mrs. Gossett did not get an allowance of alimony pendente lite, including suit-money sufficient to pay
The judgment of the court below will be affirmed.
