Description
CAYTON, Chief Judge. This was a landlord and tenant case for possession of commercial property. In the caption of the complaint as originally filed the plaintiff's name was given as Moses Goldberg. The complaint was sworn to by H. Miller as agent for plaintiff. On the day of trial the trial court gave leave to amend by inserting the name Maurice A. Greenberg as plaintiff. The amendment was accomplished by inserting the new name in the caption of the complaint, accompanied by the written notation 'amended 7-7-47' followed by the Judge's initials. The case proceeded to trial and resulted in judgment for plaintiff. Defendant appeals, assigning as error the order of amendment. The record fails to show that appellant offered any objection to the amendment being made. There is no statement of proceedings and evidence before us, appellant having submitted none to the trial court and having elected to bring the case here on the pleadings alone. Neither from these nor from the rest of the record is it shown that any objection to the amendment was offered in the trial court.
