    (159 Pac. 297.)
    1. Appeal and Error — Record—Questions Presented for Review — Entry of Judgment.
    Where the case-made does not affirmatively ■show that the judgment appealed from has been entered in the journal of the court, this court is without jurisdiction to review the same.
    
      2. Appeal and Error — Record—Authentication — Seal.
    Failure of the clerk to attest the signature of the trial judge to his certificate as to the correctness of the ease-made, with the seal of the court, deprives this court of jurisdiction to consider said case-made.
    (Syllabus by Rummons, C.)
    Error from District Court, Mayes County; Preston S. Davis. Judge.
    Action by Daniel W. Vann against the Hoard of County Commissioners of Mayes ■County, Okla. Judgment for plaintiff, and defendant brings error.
    Dismissed.
    J. M. Hill, Co. Atty of Mayes County, for plaintiff in error.
   Opinion by

RUMMONS, C.

The case-made in this case fails to affirmatively show that the judgment from which plaintiff in error appeals was mitered upon the journal of the court. The case-made contains what appears to bo a decree of the court, to which is attached a stipulation of the attorneys for (he respective parties, agreeing that it is a true, correct, and exact copy of the decree, and that said decree was filed for record on the 10th day of September, 1915. It does not, however, appear where such decree was filed or that it was ever entered upon.the journal of the court. This being the case there is nothing before this court for consideration. Mobley v. Chicago, R. I. & P. Ry. Co., 44 Okla. 788, 145 Pac. 321; Schuck v. Moore, 48 Okla. 533, 150 Pac. 461; Dodder v. Washita Lumber Co., 51 Okla. 25, 151 Pac. 679; In re. Garland, 52 Okla. 585, 153 Pac. 153.

The certificate of the trial judge to the case-made is not attested by the seal of the court. We are therefore without jurisdiction to consider the case-made. Board of Commissioners v. State, 48 Okla. 477, 150 Pac. 155; Tarkenton v. Carpenter, 48 Okla. 498, 150 Pac. 482; Walker v. Walker, 54 Okla. 666, 154 Pac. 512. These fatal defects in the record deprive this court of jurisdiction to consider this appeal.

The appeal should therefore be dismissed.

By the Court.: It is so ordered.
