Decision Date19 December 1907
Citation45 So. 150,153 Ala. 635
PartiesFITTS ET AL. v. PH×NIX AUCTION CO.
CourtAlabama Supreme Court

Appeal from City Court of Birmingham; Charles A. Senn, Judge.

Action by the Ph nix Auction Company against Frank Fitts and others. From a judgment for plaintiff, defendants appeal. Affirmed.

Henry A. Jones and Hugh Morrow, for appellants.

Kerr & Haley and Bowman, Harsh & Beddow, for appellee.

HARALSON, J.

The defendants below, appellants, file 128 assignments of error, none of which are referred to in what purports to be brief of counsel, except 5. These assignments of error are not insisted on in argument by defendants' counsel.

They do no more than refer to the assignments of error and counsel say in brief, that the court erred in these several matters, the insistance being no more, than that the court erred therein. This must be regarded as a waiver of the several assignments. Kenan v. Lindsay, 127 Ala. 273, 28 So. 570; Pearson v. Adams, 129 Ala. 169, 29 So. 977; Ashford v. Ashford, 136 Ala. 633, 34 So. 10, 96 Am. St. Rep. 82. There being no assignments of error insisted on in argument, they will be treated as waived.

Affirmed.

TYSON, C.J., and ANDERSON and McCLELLAN, JJ., concur.
