Thompson v. Church, 1 Root 312 (Colo. 1791).

Opinion

The plaintiff offered evidence to prove that said Church’s general character was that of a malicious quarrelsome man; which was objected to, and by the court not admitted. The general character is not in issue; the business of the court is to try the case and not the man; and a very bad man may have a very righteous cause.
