171 So. 2d 110 | Ala. | 1965
Appeal from a judgment for plaintiff on a note and from a judgment denying a motion for a new trial. The case was tried by the court without a jury.
Appellant's first assignment of error is that the court erred in overruling his demurrer to the complaint. Assuming, without deciding, that the court erred, the trial was had on an amended complaint. Any ruling adverse to the defendant on the original count is immaterial. Drummond v. Drummond,
Assignments of error 2, 3, 4 and 5 complain of the sustaining of objections to questions asked by appellant. In each instance the questions called for information irrelevant and immaterial to the issue and the objections were properly sustained in each instance.
Assignments 6, 7, 8 and 9 charge that the judgment is contrary to the evidence, the law, the law and the evidence, and the facts in the case. These are not proper assignments of error and present nothing for review. Lyle v. Winston County,
Assignment of error 10 reads:
"The Court erred in finding that the defendant owed any amount of money to the plaintiff."
The evidence was in conflict, but plaintiff's evidence, if believed by the court, was sufficient to support a judgment in his favor.
The final assignment charges error in the refusal of the trial court to grant the motion for a new trial. The only argument in brief on this point relates to the weight of the evidence.
Where there is evidence which, if believed, supports the verdict, or, as here, the judgment of the court, it should not be set aside because it is against the mere preponderance of the evidence. Dean v. Mayes,
Affirmed.
