PartiesMANES v. HOSS.
CourtOklahoma Supreme Court

Syllabus by the Court.

A petition in error, although filed in this court within one year from the rendition of the judgment appealed from, will be dismissed, where no summons in error was issued or præcipe filed therefor within said time, and where there was no waiver of issuance and service of summons in error.

A motion for a new trial is unnecessary to enable this court to review the action of a trial court in rendering judgment upon the pleadings.

Where the judgment appealed from is rendered upon the pleadings the time from which to perfect the appeal commences with the rendition of the judgment, and not from the order of the court overruling a motion for a new trial.

Error from District Court, Tulsa County; L. M. Poe, Judge.

Action between W. H. Manes and Raymond Hoss. From the judgment Manes brings error. Dismissed.

Nelson & League, for plaintiff in error.

Wrightsman Bush & Johnson, for defendant in error.

Co. v. Bradham, 24 Okl. 250, 103 P. 591.

A motion for a new trial is unnecessary to enable this court to review the action of a trial court in rendering a judgment upon the pleadings (Burdett et al. v. Burdett et al., 26 Okl. 416, 109 P. 922), [3] and where a motion for a new trial is unnecessary to present for review to this court the matters complained of in the petition in error, the filing of such motion and decision thereon by the court is ineffectual for the purpose of extending the time within which to perfect an appeal; [4] and the time begins to run from the rendition of the judgment appealed from, and not from the order overruling the motion for a new...
