Head Matter:
Jacob R. Shipherd, App’lt, v. Aaron B. Cohn and Ano., Resp’ts.
(New York Superior Court, General Term
Filed May 6, 1889.)
Re-argument—When motion for will be denied.
A re-argument will not be ordered upon the ground that the court mistook a fact where their assumption of the fact was in accordance with the record before the court.
Motion by appellant for re-argument.
Jacob B. Shipherd, in person; Alexander Thain, for respt’s.

Opinion:
Sedgwick, J.
The ground asserted for a re-argument is, that the court mistook a fact. That fact was that a certain order, to which the court referred in its opinion, was dated in 1887, instead of 1888, as the court assumed. The court was not mistaken, for the existence of the fact was to be determined solely by the contents of the record then before it. By that, the affidavit of Mr. Thain declared that the order was made in 1888, and the court could not assume otherwise. If, however, the order was of the date in 1887, the result would not have been different. Other considerations would have required the order made by the general term.
Motion denied, with ten dollars costs.
All concur.
