• 36 Ill. 521

Syllabus

<p>1. Practice — continuance. A motion for continuance, upon the ground that no copies of the notes on which suit is brought were filed, comes too late, after the defendant has pleaded to the action.</p> <p>2. Same — waiver of demurrer by plea. While a demurrer to a declaration is pending, the defendant, by filing a plea of the general issue, together with special pleas, waives the demurrer, and no judgment is required to be pronounced on it.</p> <p>3. Assignment of note — when must be proved. Proof of the assignment of a promissory note is not required to be made, where no affidavit is filed denying it.</p>
