Decision Date | 21 November 1958 |
Docket Number | No. 8643,8643 |
Citation | 332 P.2d 482,80 Idaho 416 |
Parties | C. Ben MARTIN, Plaintiff-Respondent, v. Jackson E. SODEN and Alice A. Soden, husband and wife, and Carl H. Swanstrom, Defendants (Alice A. Soden, Appellant). |
Court | Idaho Supreme Court |
Edith Miller, Langroise & Sullivan, Boise, for appellant.
J. F. Martin, Charles E. Winstead, Boise, for respondent.
C. Ben Martin and Carl H. Swanstrom, respondents, have moved to dismiss an appeal taken by Alice A. Soden from a judgment rendered in favor of plaintiff, C. Ben Martin, and defendant, Swanstrom, on the ground that no notice of appeal was filed by appellant with the clerk of the district court in which the cause was tried within ninety days of the date of judgment; also on the further ground that no bond or undertaking for costs was filed with the clerk of the court in which the cause was tried within the period of time required by Secs. 13-201 and 13-202 I.C. The judgment from which the attempted appeal is taken was entered by the Honorable M. Oliver Koelsch, presiding district judge, on May 9, 1957, and filed with the clerk of the court on that day. Notice of appeal is dated June 4, 1957, and was served on respondents' counsel on that day, and filed with the district court clerk November 27, 1957. The undertaking for costs on appeal is dated June 7, 1957, and filed with the clerk November 27, 1957.
In avoidance of the motion to dismiss appellant made a showing that the notice of appeal was filed with the district judge at Boise on June 4, 1957, and the undertaking for costs was filed with the district judge June 7, 1957. The notice of appeal contains the endorsement and the undertaking for costs is endorsed . The showing made by appellant's attorney also claimed that the file containing the papers in the case had been with the district judge at Boise at all times pertinent here, prior to July 22, 1957, on which last date the clerk's file was delivered to appellant's attorney; that she took the same to Council and delivered it to the clerk of the district court there on July 26, 1957. Attorney for appellant in an affidavit states:
An affidavit signed by the Clerk, Anna F. Schwartz, and her deputy, Claire A. Perkins, states that from May 2, 1957 to November 27, 1957, the file containing the papers was not in the clerk's office, and that she received the notice of appeal and undertaking on appeal for filing on November 27, 1957, and not before. This affidavit is supported by other affidavits and showing made.
If the file containing the papers were in fact with the clerk of the court on July 26, 1957, the fact remains that the notice of appeal and undertaking on appeal were not at that time handed to the clerk with instructions to file the same, and were not, in fact, filed on that date.
We think the record supports the contention of respondents that the notice of appeal and undertaking on appeal were presented to the...
