Opinion:
Mr. Justice Gary
delivered the opinion of the Court.
This is a suit by the appellee against the appellant for wages, and the Circuit Court added to the verdict in her favor attorney fees as part of the judgment.
The appellant argues that the statute under which the court acted is unconstitutional.
That argument ousts this court of jurisdiction. Bernstein v. People, page 175 this volume.
The appeal is dismissed.
