Kurlbaum v. Roepke
27 Mo. 161 | Mo. | 1858
delivered the opinion of the court.
This suit was commenced after the code of 1855 was in force. The case was tried by the court, the parties having waived a jury. The present code does not require a finding of the facts when the issues in a cause are tried by the court. The old practice in such cases is now revived. When a cause is tried by the court sitting as a jury and no instructions or declarations of law are asked or given on the trial, this court will not interfere by ordering a new trial.
the judgment is affirmed.
