Court | Missouri Supreme Court |
Botsford, Deatherage & Young, J. M. Cleary, and Brown, Hadley & Swift, for relators. Lathrop, Morrow, Fox & Moore, for respondent.
On the 26th of December, 1895, the relators brought an action in the circuit court of Jackson county, at Kansas City, against the Grand Avenue Hotel Company, to recover damages for the death of their father, Fred C. Patton, who was killed on the 27th of December, 1894, while in the service of said company, operating its boiler and furnace, by the explosion thereof. The cause coming on for trial at the April term, 1896, of said court, before division No. 3 thereof, after hearing all the evidence the court instructed the jury to return a verdict for the defendant company, which was accordingly done. Thereupon the plaintiffs in due time filed their motion for a new trial, which, coming on to be heard at the October term, 1896, was sustained, on the ground that the court erred in instructing the jury to return a verdict for said defendant company. Thereupon the hotel company, in due form, took an appeal to this court from said order of the circuit court granting a new trial. Afterwards, at the April term, 1897, of said circuit court, the plaintiffs (relators herein) applied to the respondent, as judge of said court, presiding in division No. 3, by motion, for a trial of said cause notwithstanding the appeal, which motion was then and there overruled and refused. Afterwards application by petition filed on the 26th of June, 1897, was made to this court by relators for a writ of mandamus requiring the respondent to proceed with the trial of said cause notwithstanding said appeal, on the ground that, no appeal bond having been given on said appeal, such proceeding was not thereby stayed. To the petition respondent appeared, waived issue of alternative writ, and made return setting up the facts aforesaid, and admitting that no bond was given on said appeal, as alleged in the petition. Thereupon the relators filed two motions: First, to strike out a part of the return; and, second, for a peremptory writ upon the facts stated in the petition.
1. That part of the return to which the motion to strike out is directed consists simply of the remarks made by the judge presiding in division No. 3, in explanation and support of his action in sustaining the motion for a new trial; and, being impertinent to the real issue tendered by the return, that motion will be sustained.
2. The question raised by the second motion is whether, under the statute, an appeal from an order of the circuit court granting a new trial without bond stays the trial of the cause in the circuit court, pending such appeal in the appellate court.
By the statute governing the case it is provided as follows:
