Garrett v. Wood

24 A.D. 620, 48 N.Y.S. 1002

Opinion

Per Curiam:

The only papers in the record before us are the order appealed from and the notice of appeal. The order states that the action coming on for trial in its regular order on the calendar, and the plaintiff having announced herself ready for trial, the defendant moved that the case be put over the term, and _ that after hearing the counsel for the respective parties the action was put over the term without costs. The order does not state that any papers were used. Presumptively none were used, but instead thereof the oral statements of counsel on either side. The point of the appellant seems to be that the order was improper because not based on affidavits. It does not appear that any objection was made on this ground. Such motions are often heard on .oral statements, and if counsel do not object at the time no error on that ground can be claimed. What the statements before the court were does not appear; and we, therefore, cannot say that the case was improperly put over. It is the business of the appellant to show error. That is not done here and the order should be affirmed.

All concurred.

Order affirmed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements.
