RODGERS v. BLACK.
    June 8, 1896. By two Justices. Argued at the last term.
    Foreclosure of lien. Before Judge Butt. Muscogee superior court. November term, 1894.
    Affidavit was made to foreclose a landlord’s special lien; and issue was taken by counter-affidavit. Under tbe evidence and charge of the court, the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff. Without moving for a new trial, defendant brought a bill of exceptions with the assignment of error quoted in the head-note.
    
      C. J. Thornton, for plaintiff in error. Miller, Wynn & Miller and W. H. & E. R. Black, contra.
   Simmons, C. J.

A bill of 'exceptions which does not complain of any ruling or decision by the trial judge, and contains no assignment of error except the following: “And the defendant assigns said verdict and judgment as error, the same being contrary to law,” is palpably without merit. As has been repeatedly ruled, a verdict cannot be thus reviewed in the Supreme Court. ■ Judgment affirmed.
