HARRY CORSON vs. MICHAEL W. COMISKEY.

Practice, Civil, Exceptions, Findings by judge.

No question of law is presented to this court upon exceptions by a defendant in an action of contract to a finding for the plaintiff by a judge who heard the action without a jury upon conflicting evidence and to a refusal by the judge to grant rulings of law which were predicated upon facts which the judge stated he did not find to exist.

BY THE COURT.

This is an action of contract to recover for services rendered by the plaintiff to the defendant under an agreement to work by the month. The term of service was ended in the midst of a monthly period. The evidence was conflicting whether it ended because of conduct of the plaintiff or of the defendant. The finding of the judge who heard the case without a jury was in favor of the plaintiff. This imported a finding of all subsidiary facts necessary to reach that conclusion. All the requests of the defendant for rulings were predicated upon the theory that the plaintiff of his own voluntary act left the employment without discharge by the defendant. They all were denied by the judge on the ground that he did "not find the facts to be such as to make defendant's requests for rulings applicable." The whole case presented simply a question of fact for decision on conflicting evidence. No error of law is disclosed.

Exceptions overruled.
