Docket Number | 3,653. |
Citation | 201 F. 893 |
Parties | SEEP v. FERRIS-HAGGARTY COPPER MINING CO. et al. |
Court | U.S. Court of Appeals — Eighth Circuit |
Horace N. Hawkins, of Denver, Colo., for plaintiff in error.
Charles E. Blydenburgh and A. McMicken, both of Rawlins, Wyo. for defendants in error.
Before SANBORN and CARLAND, Circuit Judges, and WM. H. MUNGER district judge.
WM. H MUNGER, District Judge.
This was an action at law. A jury was waived, and trial had to the court, which made a general finding for defendant, and entered judgment thereon. The assignments of error are:
Plaintiff tendered to the court no request for any finding of fact or law, or for judgment in his favor. Such being the case, under numerous decisions of the Supreme Court and this court, there is nothing which this court can review. Mercantile Trust Co. v. Wood, 60 F. 346-348, 8 C.C.A. 658; United States Fidelity & G. Co. v. Board of Com'rs, 145 F. 144-151, 76 C.C.A. 114; Nat'l Surety Co. v. United States for the use, etc., 200 F. 142, decided at this term, and cases therein cited.
