Syllabus

<p>New Trial. — A mere statement of abstract propositions unaccompanied by evidence for testing them is not a motion for a new trial; it is a mere inchoate proceeding which should be stricken from the files.</p> <p>Idem. — It is no ground of objection that a motion for a new trial was not heard by the judge who tried the case, where the judge hearing the motion does so at the request of the moving party.</p> <p>Remittitur. — Where a remittitur is filed, it is only an admission that the verdict was excessive in the amount remitted.</p> <p>JuDaMENT. — Where the basis of a judgment has been laid, the point for entering judgment has been reached, the order for its entry is a form, and any judge qualified to act in the case may make the order.</p>
