Lawyers, in addressing juries,
are apt to think themselves licensed
TO say just what they please; aud
they often please to say things that
have no relevancy to the matter
In hand, and no foundation in the
evidence, but which, as they sup
pose, may have some influence in
affecting the verdict. The Court
Appeals of New York state recent.
ly laid down the following lust
principle as the rule of law on this
subject:
"Where counsel. in summing up.
proceeds to dilate upon facts not IN
evidence, or to press upon the jury
considerations which the Jury
would have no right to regard. it
IS. we conceive, the plain duty of
the court upon objection made to
interpose; and a refusal to inter-
pose. where otherwise the right of
the party would be prejudiced,
would be legal error"
1t was on this ground that the
Court of Appeals reversed the
Judgment rendered in the court
below, and ordered a new trial.
The rule thus laid down is certain
ly one that commends itself to com
mon sense; and this ought to make
1t good law. IN. Y. Paper.
