Attorney and client, \u00a7 135 \u2014 when evidence sustains judgment for plaintiff in action for legal services. Evidence in an action by an attorney for services rendered defendant in connection with disbarment proceedings against the latter, held to sustain a judgment for plaintiff as against defendant\u2019s contention that plaintiff agreed to perform some of the services without compensation and that he had not retained him to perform other services.\n2. Attorney and client, \u00a7 130* \u2014 when claim for legal services is not tarred. A claim for legal services is not barred by limitations where the services were performed continuously over a period of years and part of the services were performed within the statutory period.\n3. Judgment, \u00a7 205* \u2014 when for less than amount plaintiff entitled to sue for is proper. A claim that a judgment for plaintiff cannot stand because he did not sue for as much as the evidence showed he was entitled to recover is without merit.\nAppeal from the Municipal Court of Chicago; the Hon. Wells M, Cook, Judge, presiding. Heard in the Branch Appellate Court at the October term, 1917.\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed June 19, 1918.\nStatement of the Case.\nAction by George W. Plummer, plaintiff, against Edward J. Ader, defendant, to recover for legal services rendered defendant in connection with disbarment proceedings against the latter. From a judgment for plaintiff, defendant appeals.\nJohnson & Herr, for appellant.\nWalter A. Lantz, for appellee.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to XV, and Cumulative Quarterly, same topic and section number."
