Knox v. Williams green

1892(Knox v. Williams, 24 Neb., 630 .) Complaint is made of the refusal to give the following instruction: “If the jury find that a witness has deliberately sworn falsely as to any material fact in the case, it is the right of the jury to disregard all the statements of such witness, except such statements are corroborated by other good and respectable witnesses.” The refusal to give this instruction is, at most, error without prejudice.
