Head Matter:
Solomon Jonas, Plaintiff and Respondent, v. Simon Feist, Defendant and Appellant.
(New York Superior Court, General Term,
Filed April 15, 1889.)
Appeal—Exceptions—Tblal by jüby—What bbyiewable by general term.
On a trial by jury, the only subjects for exceptions reviewable by the general term, are rulings at the trial. ' But where there are no exceptions to any ruling of the court at the trial, but only to an order denying a new trial, which was a proceeding subsequent to the trial, such exception is not available for any purpose. The appeal being from the judgment only, the judgment must be affirmed.
Howe & Hummel, for app’lt; Jacob Marks, for resp’t.

Opinion:
Dugro, J.
This is an appeal from a judgment entered on the verdict of a jury.
Errors of law arising on exceptions taken at the trial are, therefore, alone before the court for consideration.
The only exception which appears in the case, is one to-an order denying a motion for a new trial. Such an exception is not, therefore, available for any purpose.
On trials by1 jury, the only subjects for exceptions are rulings at the trial.
The motion for a new trial is a proceeding subsequent to the trial, and an order made on such motion is reviewable only by appeal. Boos v. World Mutual Life Insurance Company, 64 N. Y., 236; Thurber v. The Harlem Bridge, Morrisania and Fordham Railroad Company, 60 id., 326.
The judgment must, therefore, be affirmed.
Truax, J., concurs.
