It has been held in this court that, after a judgment on demurrer, there can be no motion in arrest for any exception which might have been taken on the demurrer. See Mayer v. Lawrence, 58 Ill. App. 194, and authorities therein cited.\nThe objection to the instructions for appellees, that they are framed upon the theory of the sufficiency of the second plea, vrill not be considered, for the reason that the instructions given for appellant are based upon the same theory.\nThere was no substantial error in the rulings of the court in admitting evidence or in refusing to give instructions.\nThe court did not err in sustaining a demurrer to the plea of recoupment, and especially so when it is remembered that recoupment may be proven and availed of under the general issue.\nThe judgment is affirmed.",

Appellate Court Practice\u2014No Exceptions in the Court Below. \u2014The sufficiency of the evidence to support a verdict can not be questioned when no exception to the action of the court below, in overruling a motion for a new trial, has been preserved in the bill of exceptions.\n2. Same\u2014Sufficiency of Pleas.\u2014When a party, instead of abiding by his demurrer, replies to a plea, goes, to trial on the issue thus joined and does not raise the question of the sufficiency of the plea thereafter by duly preserved exceptions to the action of the court in overruling a motion in arrest of judgment (where the question can be raised in this manner after judgment on demurrer) he can not raise the question of such sufficiency in the Appellate Court.\n3. Practice\u2014Motion in Arrest After Judgment on Demurrer.\u2014After a judgment on demurrer there can be no motion in arrest for any exceptions which might have been taken on the demurrer.\n4. Same\u2014Plea of Recoupment\u2014General Issue.\u2014It is not error to sustain a demurrer to a plea of recoupment where this defense can be made under the general issue which is pleaded.\nAssumpsit, on a promissory note. Appeal from the County Court of Union County; the Hon. Monroe C. Crawford, Judge, presiding. Heard in this court at the August term, 1895.\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed March 7, 1896.\nHileman & Sessions, attorneys for appellant.\nKarraker & Lingle, attorneys for appellees."
