Spitzer v. Miller
Decision Date | 16 March 1905 |
Docket Number | 5,462 |
Citation | 73 N.E. 833,35 Ind.App. 116 |
Parties | SPITZER ET AL. v. MILLER ET AL |
Court | Indiana Appellate Court |
From Howard Superior Court; Walter W. Mount, Special Judge.
Action by Celian Spitzer and another against Frank D. Miller and others. From a judgment for defendants, plaintiffs appeal.
Appeal dismissed.
Willits & Voorhis, for appellants.
Bell & Purdum, Blacklidge, Shirley & Wolf, B. C. Moon and C. B. Masslich, for appellees.

There were seven demurrers to the amended complaint, some being separate demurrers of single defendants, others joint demurrers of other defendants. There are fourteen specifications in the assignment of errors, the first two as follows: The other odd-numbered specifications are alike, and the same as the first, except that each of them is different from the others and from the first as to the name or names of demurring defendants. All the other even-numbered specifications are the same as the second, the same supposed error being thus stated in the same language seven times in the assignment.

The statute (§ 667 Burns 1901, § 655 R S. 1881) and rule four of this court require that an assignment of error shall be specific, and the rule expressly requires that each specification shall be complete in itself. Each supposed error must be specified; the specifications must be distinct. Each specification in itself alone must be sufficient to require the court on appeal to review some action of the court below, and it must not be addressed to a number of separate supposed errors.
2. The even-numbered specifications do not relate to any specific action of the court to which an exception was saved, or to any action to which an exception could be taken effectually. To attack here a judgment which would follow as of course upon what preceded in the record, some proceeding...
