Syllabus
<p>Practice — Verdict — Unsigned Special Findings cannot Control Special Verdict. — The findings of the jury on special issues submitted to them are ineffective for any purpose, and cannot control the general verdict, unless they are signed either by the jury as a whole, or by their foreman; and the failure of the party against whom the special issues are found to object to the findings being received is not a waiver of the defect.</p>
