Adams v. Bartlett
Bartlett sued Adams in an action of assumpsit. Adams contested the validity of a capias writ, but the circuit court denied Adams's assertion. Both parties waived a jury, and a bench trial led to a judgment in favor of Bartlett. Adams appealed, arguing the denial of the motion to discharge bail. The Illinois Supreme Court upheld the judgment, asserting that the motion's outcome wouldn't have changed the trial's result.
