Visina v. Freeman green

1958Basic to a consideration of this contention is the principle that this court will not interfere with the legislature’s classification unless it is so manifestly arbitrary as to evince a purpose of evading the constitution. 20 In Visina v. Freeman, 252 *182 Minn. 177, 196, 89 N. W. (2d) 635, 651 , we summarized the features which distinguish a general law from a special law by saying: “(1) A law is general when it is uniform in its operation even though it divides the subjects of its operation into classes and applies different rules to different classes.

King v. Burnham neutral

1906No exception was noted at the trial, but the notice of motion for a new trial specified as a ground thereof, among others: “(2) That the court erred in granting the motion of the defendant, made at the close of plaintiff’s testimony, to dismiss the action.” We held in King v. Burnham, 93 Minn. 288 , 101 N. W. 302 , that a distinct and specific designation in a motion for a new trial of the ruling complained of and made the basis of the motion is a sufficient exception, under chapter 113, p. 121, Laws 1901, dispensing with the necessity of taking exceptions at the trial.
