    T. E. Lundell, Appellee, v. Minnie Schultz, Appellant.
    Gen. No. 5,893.
    (Not to be reported in full.)
    Appeal from the County Court of Rock Island county; the Hon. Benjamin S. Bell, Judge, presiding.
    Heard in this court at the October term, 1913.
    Affirmed.
    Opinion filed April 15, 1914.
    Statement of the Case.
    Action by T. E. Lundell against Minnie Schultz to recover cdmmissions on a sale of real estate. The pleadings were the common counts and the general issue. A jury was waived and the case was tried by the court. The county judge of Boclc Island county having resigned, the county clerk called in the probate judge who presided at the trial. No evidence was offered by the defendant. From a judgment in favor of plaintiff for three hundred dollars, defendant appeals.
    The errors relied on for reversal are: (1) That the presiding judge was illegally sitting as the judge of the County Court; that he had no jurisdiction to preside as such, and his judgment is coram non judice. (2) That the judgment is against the law and the evidence. (3) That upon the facts disclosed by the record, the judgment must necessarily be rendered against the appellee and in favor of the appellant. (4) That the court erred in admitting improper evidence on the part of appellée and erroneously overruled a motion of appellant, made at the close of appellee’s case, to strike out all the evidence and find for appellant.
    A. H. Kohler and J. T. & S. R. Kenworthy, for appellant.
    George W. Wood, for appellee.

    3. Appeal and ebbob, § 1414
      
      —when judgment by court without a jury will be sustained. Where there is sufficient competent evidence to sustain a judgment by the court without a jury, the judgment will not he reversed for minor errors of the court in ruling on evidence.
