12 N.J. Misc. 467

LEVENSON COMPANY, RESPONDENT, v. CATHERINE NOVELLO, APPELLANT.

Submitted January term, 1934

Decided May 18, 1934.

Before Justices Parker, Lloyd and Perskte.

For the appellant, Eugene A. Liotta.

For the respondent, Samuel H. Nelson.

Per Curiam.

Two promissory notes, both signed by the appellant, Catherine Novello, as maker—one for $350 drawn to the order of the plaintiff; the other for $148.15 drawn to the order of the Interstate Flour Company and assigned by the latter company to the plaintiff, were the basis of the action. Both notes were endorsed by the defendant Eugene A. Liotta. Not being paid when due suit was brought thereon against both maker and endorser. A nonsuit was granted in favor of the endorser Liotta on proof that he had received no notice of protest, and a judgment was rendered for the plaintiff for S500 against Novello, the excess above that sum being waived.

The specifications of determinations presented for review are—

1. That the court refused to allow plaintiff to ascertain under what condition Levenson Company procured the assignment of the Interstate Flour Company.

2 The District Court erred in allowing Bernard Levenson, a witness of the plaintiff, Levenson Company, to testify *468as to the assignment of the Interstate Flour Company claim as against Catherine FTovello without the assignment itself being in evidence.

3. The court erred in allowing a book other than the book of original entry to prove the claim of plaintiff against the defendant, Catherine Eovello.

4. The court below erred in refusing to direct a verdict in favor of the defendant, Catherine Uovello.

Upon the record presented there was nothing the court, could do other than to enter a judgment for the plaintiff. The notes were offered in evidence without objection and their execution by Novello as maker and Liotta as endorser duly proved. Of the facts thus established there was no denial. It may be added that no one of the specifications relied on for reversal, with the exception of the last, is sufficient to bring before this court any ruling made in the trial of the case (Booth v. Keegan, 108 N. J. L. 538; 159 Atl. Rep. 402), and the fourth as above indicated is without merit.

Judgment is affirmed, with costs.
