Syllabus

<p>Practice, C. P, — Judgment for defendant n. o. v. — Reservation of question of law — Appeals—Act of April 28,1905, P. L. 286.</p> <p>Where on an appeal the record does not show that there was a point submitted by the defendants for binding directions, or that a question of law was reserved, the case is hot within the Act of April 22, 1905, P. L. 286, or any other act authorizing the entry of judgment in favor of the defendant non obstante veredicto, but in such a case the appellate court in reversing the judgment cannot direct a judgment on the verdict, if the record fails to show that the defendants’ rule, so far as it related to a new trial had been disposed of.</p>
