Description
The defendant brings this case before the court on exceptions to the finding and ruling of a justice of the Superior Court, acting pursuant to Section 26 of Chapter 91 of the Revised Statutes (1930), who decided the cause without the aid of a jury and ordered judgment for the plaintiff for the full amount of the draft on which the suit is based. The plaintiff asks that the exceptions be overruled on the authority of Frank v. Mallett, 92 Me. 77, 42 A. 238, 239, where defendant, after exceptions alleged by him had been disallowed, sought to have them established in this court, in accordance with the provisions of what is now Section 24 of Chapter 91. His petition was dismissed in accordance with the well-established rule of law that ""when a cause is tried by the presiding justice without the intervention of a jury,"" in accordance with the statute now in question, ""exceptions to his rulings in matters of law do not lie, unless there has been an express reservation of the right to except.""
