Wisconsin Supreme Court June 15, 1862 (Driscoll v. Damp)

By the Court,

Cole J.

It appears to us the circuit court erred, in excluding the evidence offered to show the identity of the matter litigated in the former suit with the one in issue here. The appellant had set up in his answer, that the identical claim herein, was in issue and adjudged in a former suit and relied on the estoppel.
