Mercantile Credit Company, Appellant, v. Michael Richman et al., Appellees.
    Gen. No. 17,522.
    Appeals and ebbobs—final orders. Orders quashing a writ “of capias ad respondendum and discharging defendant’s hail, and overruling motion to impose terms in connection with the order quashing the capias, are not final and appealable.
    Appeal from the Circuit Court of Cook county; the Hon. Thomas G. Windes, Judge, presiding. Heard in the Branch Appellate Court at the March term, 1911.
    Appeal dismissed.
    Opinion filed October 22, 1912.
    Frank Schoenfeld, for appellant.
    Samuels & Samuels, for appellees.
   Mr. Justice F. A. Smith

delivered the opinion of the court.

In this case a capias ad respondendum was issued for the arrest of appellees, defendants. On their motion the court entered an order quashing the writ and discharging the bail of defendants. Appellant prosecutes this appeal from that order, and from orders overruling its motion for leave to file an amended affidavit for capias and its motion for the imposition of terms in connection with the order quashing the capias.

The orders appealed from are not final. Appeals lie from final orders, judgments and decrees only, except in cases specially provided for by statute. The record discloses no final judgment in the case. The motion of appellees to dismiss the appeal is sustained. Fitzsimmons v. Giddings, 89 Ill. App. 434; Farson v. Gorham, 117 Ill. 137.

Appeal dismissed.
