Decision Date | 21 January 1908 |
Citation | 93 P. 366,50 Or. 506 |
Parties | RODMAN v. MANNING et al. |
Court | Oregon Supreme Court |
Appeal from Circuit Court, Lane County; L.T. Harris, Judge.
Action by Jack Rodman against Wm. P. Manning and others. Decree for plaintiff, and defendants appeal. Appeal dismissed.
I.N. Harbaugh and Coovert & Stapleton, for appellants.
Williams & Bean, for appellee.
On August 1, 1907, plaintiff recovered a decree in the circuit court for Lane county against defendants, and from this decree defendants attempt to appeal. The notice of appeal, as it appears in the transcript, shows that it was filed on August 26th, and the indorsement of proof of service is dated the 26th of the following month. The plaintiff moves to dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction, because the proof of service of the notice was not indorsed thereon at the time it was filed. The statute provides that, when an appeal is not taken at the time the decision is rendered, it may be taken at any time within six months thereafter by serving a notice on the adverse party or his attorney "and filing the original with proof of service indorsed thereon," with the clerk. Section 549, B. & C. Comp. It has been held under similar statutory provisions that a notice of appeal, when filed, must be accompanied by proof of service in the shape of an indorsement thereon, and that service cannot be made and proof thereof placed on the notice after it has been filed. Briney v. Starr, 6 Or. 207; Henness v. Wells, 16 Or. 266, 19 P. 121. Defendants claim, however, and have filed ex parte affidavits to show that the dates of filing of notice and acknowledgment of service thereof, as they appear on the transcript, are erroneous, and in fact the service was admitted on August 28th, and the notice with the indorsement of such admission thereon was afterwards filed with the clerk. But, if there is an error in the record in this respect, the remedy is by application to the court below to correct the same, and the transcript as filed here cannot be contradicted or impeached by extraneous evidence. Briney v Starr, supra. Again, it is said that plaintiff has waived the objection by filing his brief in this court; but the service and filing of the notice of appeal are indispensable in order to give this court jurisdiction, and cannot be waived by the parties. Oliver v. Harvey, 5 Or. 360; Wolf v Smith, 6 Or. 73.
