On Motion for Rehearing
We desire to call attention to one matter set out in appellant’s motion for rehearing. The motion for rehearing contains the following statement: “The Trial Court erred in not sustaining Appellant’s exceptions to the allegation that the Government paid Appellant $9.50 per yard for the rock removed by Appellees, and also erred in admitting proof under said allegation that Appellant was paid $9.50 for all the rock excavated by Appellees under said contract, and that Appellees were only paid $6.00 for the same work by Appellant.”
In his brief appellant complained because the trial court did not sustain his exception to the allegation in appellees’ petition that appellant was paid $9.50 per yard for the rock removed by appellees, but did not complain of the admission of proof that appellant was paid $9.50 per yard for excavation of rock. In other words, the complaint made in the second half of the sentence quoted from appellant’s motion for rehearing is made for the first time in the motion for rehearing, and therefore cannot be considered at this late date.
We have carefully considered the motion for rehearing, and believe that it should be overruled.
