Decided October 26, 1885.
There being no assignment of error or appearance for plaintiff in error, judgment below is affirmed on motion of defendant in error, without examining the record.
The facts which make the case are stated in the opinion of the court.
No appearance for plaintiff in error.
Mr. George A. Nourse for defendant in error.
[MAJORITY — Mw. Chief Justice Waite]
Mw. Chief Justice Waite
delivered the opinion of the court. When this cause was reached on the call of the docket it was submitted by the defendant, in error on a printed brief. An assignment of errors was not annexed to or returned with the writ of error, as required by § 997 Kev. Stat. At the last term the counsel for the plaintiff in error was permitted to withdraw his appearance, and no one has taken his place. No argument has been submitted in behalf of the plaintiff in error, and no errors have been assigned in any form. We, therefore, affirm the judgment without opening the record.
Affirmed.
