• 62 Ill. 285

Syllabus

<p>1. Special assessments—necessity of aproper objection, to admit evidence. In an application for a judgment upon a special assessment in the city of Chicago, the objector offered to prove that no notice had been given of the application for confirmation of the assessment, as required by the city charter: Held, as no such objection had been filed, the evidence was properly excluded.</p> <p>2. Same—discretion as to filing objection at the hearing. And upon objection that the court below erred in refusing to allow such objection to be filed on the hearing, it was held, that that was a matter resting in the discretion of the court, and as there was no affidavit upon which the application to file it was based, this court could not say that the discretion had been abused.</p>
