OPINION TEXT STARTS HERE

Appeal from circuit court, Dane county; Robert G. Siebecker, Judge.

Action by W. A. Welsher against Libby, McNeil & Libby for a balance due plaintiff for services and commissions. From an order overruling a motion to set aside the service of the summons and complaint, defendant appeals. Dismissed.Buell & Hanks, for appellant.

Shuttleworth & Dibble, for respondent.

WINSLOW, J.

This is an appeal by the defendant, a foreign corporation, from an order of the circuit court refusing to set aside the service of the summons and complaint, and imposing costs of motion. The appeal must be dismissed, because the order is not an order within the category of appealable orders contained in section 3069, Rev. St. 1898, nor is there any special statute making such order appealable. The idea seems to have been entertained that, because the order imposed costs of motion, it shall be treated as a judgment for the purposes of an appeal, such idea being founded upon inaccurate language used in Kingsley v. Railway Co., 91 Wis. 380, 64 N. W. 1036. This idea was distinctly rejected in Lewis v. Railway Co., 97 Wis. 368, 72 N. W. 976, and it is not necessary to further enlarge upon the subject. Appeal dismissed.
