Walden v. Lewis
Citations
- 71 Ill. 453
Syllabus
<p>1. Error will not always reverse—excluding evidence. Even if the court commits an error in refusing to permit a question to he answered by a witness, yet, if it appears that the witness gave all the evidence that was sought to he elicited by the question, which in any view of the case was material, the judgment will not be reversed.</p> <p>2. Costs—defective abstract. Where the appellant omits material parts of the evidence from his abstract, and thus imposes the necessity upon the appellee of filing an additional abstract, and the judgment is affirmed, the appellant must pay for the additional abstract, and it will be taxed as costs against him.</p>
