92 So. 449 | Ala. | 1922
J. H. Beck, as administrator of the estate of John P. Morrow, deceased, files this suit in detinue against C. A. Morrow for certain personal property alleged to belong to the estate of John P. Morrow, deceased. The case was tried on general issue filed by defendant to the complaint. The jury returned a verdict in favor of plaintiff. There was judgment thereon by the court, and the defendant appeals. The defendant made motion to set aside the verdict. It was overruled by the court.
There are only two errors assigned. One claims the court erred in overruling motion for new trial because, as contended, the uncontradicted evidence shows a part of the property sued for and given to plaintiff by the verdict of the jury belonged to Mrs. M. A. Smith and her mother. The second error assigned was the verdict of the jury was contrary to the charge of the court and the evidence, as a part of the property sued for and given to plaintiff by the verdict of the jury did not belong to the estate of the deceased.
The bill of exceptions fails to state that it *340
contains all of the evidence. It fails to state it contains in substance all of the evidence. It makes no recital in regard to all of the evidence in the case. It does not purport to set out all of the evidence. This being the situation of the record, this court will presume there was sufficient legal evidence in the case to support and sustain the finding of facts by the jury, evidenced by their verdict. Hence we must decide the court did not err in refusing to grant the motion to set aside the verdict and grant a new trial on the grounds stated in the errors assigned. Donaldson v. Wilkerson,
Finding no error in the record, this case is affirmed.
Affirmed.
ANDERSON, C. J., and SAYRE and GARDNER, JJ., concur.
