IN BANC.
Appeal from Circuit Court, Jackson County.
Marsh & Marsh, of McMinnville, for Respondent.
Allen & Roberts, of Portland, and George Roberts, of Medford, for Appellant.
MOTION GRANTED.
Respondent has moved to dismiss the appeal for the reason that the notice of appeal given by the appellant does not comply with the statutory requirement that, after service of such notice on the adverse party or his attorney, "the original, with proof of service indorsed thereon", shall be filed with the clerk of the court in which the judgment, order or decree is entered. The statute provides:
"If the appeal is not taken at the time the decision, order, judgment or decree is rendered or given, then the party desiring to appeal may cause a notice signed by himself or attorney, to be served on such adverse party or parties as have appeared in the action or suit, or upon his or their attorney, at any place where he or they may be found and file the original, with proof of service indorsed thereon, with the clerk of the court in which the judgment, decree or order is entered." (Italics added) § 10-803, O.C.L.A., Ch. 119, Oregon Laws, 1943.
The record before us shows that the original notice of appeal was filed with the clerk of the Circuit Court on June 25, 1947, but no proof of service was indorsed thereon or filed therewith. No showing in opposition to the motion has been made by the appellant, other than that under date of August 27, 1947, and on the same day that the motion to dismiss was filed, one of the attorneys for the appellant filed with the clerk of this court an affidavit stating that "I mailed the notice of appeal and a copy of the bond or undertaking on appeal to Messrs. Eugene Marsh and Francis Marsh, Attorneys at Law, to McMinnville, Oregon, under date of July 25, 1947, which notice and copy of bond was received by the said Marsh & Marsh, Attorneys, for the Plaintiff-Respondent, in the above entitled suit."
1, 2. The requirement of the statute as to proof of service of the notice of appeal is jurisdictional. Muckle v. Columbia County, 56 Or. 146, 108 P. 120; Catlin v. Jones, 56 Or. 492, 108 P. 633. As stated in the latter case, "the requisite proof cannot be supplied by affidavit or in any other manner." These decisions were rendered before the adoption of Ch. 119, Oregon Laws, 1943, but the amendment has not changed the law in this regard. Pond v. Jantzen Knitting Mills, ___ Or. ___, 180 P. (2d) 115; Martin v. Harrison, ___ 180 P. (2d) 119; Williams v. Ragan, 175 Or. 328, 333, 143 P. (2d) 209. R...
