new TRIAL
Asked for in the Case Of PiChe
Against Robbins.

The case of Noel Piche VS.. Walter M.
Robbins was heard by Chief Justice Sti-
ness and Justices Tillinghast and Rogers
on defendants petition for new trial.
This action is one of deceit In falsely al
leging a certain lot Of land to be free
from incumbrances at the time OF its
sale by the Home Building company to
the paintiff. when in fact 1t was not.
A jury gave plaintiff verdict for S242. 20.
The new trial is asked for on the ground
that the verdict was against the evidence,
that IL was against the law, that the ver-
dict was excessive and the presiding JUS
tice erred in his rulings. Counsel TOR
the defendant. Claude j. Farnsworth,
claimed that an examination of the rec
ord discloses the fact that the court I'm
the first place had no jurisdiction TO try
the case. The writ was entered I'm the
Pawtucket district court on the iirSt day
OF August 1900. and no declaration was
filed at that time and none filed until
Aug. II. 1900. After this the plaintiff sub
mitted TO judgment ana the case was sent
TO the common pleas division OF the SUI

motion was ever made to file said decla-
ration, nor any agr5 ement by which the
plaintiff could file the same but the same
was filed and forwarded with the papers
