LAMBERT v. MONARCH CEMENT CO.
    No. 20738.
    Opinion Filed Nov. 26, 1929.
    
      Louis W. Pratt, for plaintiff in error.
    William C. Alley and Hunt & Eagleton. for defendant in error.
   PER CURIAM.

This is an- appeal from an order of the district court of Tulsa county made on the 19th day of February, 1929, denying plaintiff in error’s objection to the confirmation of a judicial sale of real estate upon execution and confirming the sale. Oral and documentary evidence was introduced upon the hearing had before the trial court, resulting in the order appealed from. At the time of the making of the order appealed from no order was made extending the time in which to make and serve case-made, nor was such an order made within 15 days thereafter. Plaintiff in error filed her motion for new trial, which was overruled March 23, 1929, and on this date the trial court made an order extending the time in which to make and serve ease-made. The case-made was served on the defendant in error on August 15, 1929, asd thereafter settled and signed, and with the petition in error was filed in this court September 21, 1929. The filing and determination of a mo-tion for new trial of a contested question of fact not arising upon the pleadings but upon a motion is unnecessary to authorize this court to review an order made on such hearing. Powell v. Nichols, 26 Okla. 734, 110 Pac. 762; Ginn v. Knight, 106 Okla. 4, 232 Pac. 938; Buchanan v. Eddleman, 125 Okla. 184, 256 Pac. 520; Revard v. White, 139 Okla. 102, 281 Pac. 258, and does not extend the time in which to make and serve a case-made. Ginn v. Knight supra; Buchanan v. Eddleman, supra; Revard v. White, supra. The order of the court made on March 23, 1929, extending the time in which to serve case-made, is a nullity for the reason the court was without jurisdiction to make the same, such order not having been made within 15 days .time allowed by law in which to serve case-made after the making of the order appealed from. Petty v. Foster, 122 Okla. 152, 252 Pac. 836; Revard v. White, supra. The filing of such unauthorized, motion for new trial does not extend the time in which to file an hppeal in this court. Barfield Petroleum Co. v. Pickering Lumber Co. et al., 137 Okla. 151, 278 Pac. 391.

The case-made served on August 15, 1929, not having been' served within the time allowed by law or a valid order of the court, is a nullity and brings nothing before this court for review, and the petition in error not having been filed in this court within the six months from the date of the order appealed from, this court is without jurisdiction to review the order complained of, and upon motion of the defendant in error, the appeal is dismissed.
