Anthony Hutchins v. Hector McLean. &8212 Conf., 110.
The reasons in arrest of judgment cannot avail the defendant. He ought to have demurred for the cause assigned in his reasons in arrest of judgment, but having pleaded an issuable plea, (328) and that being found against him, it is too late, after the verdict, to take the exceptions. This defect being excused by the several acts of the General Assembly for the amendment of the law. Cited: West v. Ratledge, 15 N.C. 38.
