Merrill and another vs. Rollin.
    Wbit of Ebbob. A writ of error will not lie to an order overruling a motion for a continuance.
    The case is stated in the opinion of the court.
    
      J. U. Knowlton, for plaintiffs in error.
    
      John OatUn, for defendant in error.
   Miller, J.

At the first term a demurrer was filed by defendants. At the second term the plaintiff obtained leave to amend his declaration, when the defendant pleaded issuably and filed an affidavit and motion for a continuance. The affidavit is in the form prescribed by the rules of court for the continuance of a cause at the first term.

It is well settled that a writ of error does not lie upon an order overruling a motion for a continuance. The order of the court in this instance, was strictly correct. There is no error on the record, and the judgment must be affirmed, with costs.
