No. 5533.
1. Appeal: Failure to File Transcript in Time: Dismissal.

2. Review: Affidavits on Motions: Bill of Exceptions. Affidavits used on the hearing of a motion in the district court cannot be considered in the supreme court unless embodied in a bill of exceptions. Following Maggard v. Van Duyn, 36 Neb., 862, and Barry v. Barry, 39 Neb., 521.
Error from the district court of Nance county. Tried below before Sullivan, J.
Reid & Morgan, for plaintiff in error.
Martin I. Brower, contra.

Opinion:
Ryan, C.
Plaintiff in error complains that his appeal from the county court of Nance county was dismissed in the district court because the transcript was not filed within thirty days from the date of the judgment. There was probably an attempt to excuse the above failure by a showing of facts made by affidavit not incorporated in a bill of exceptions. Following the rules laid down in Maggard v. Van Duyn, 36 Neb., 862, and Barry v. Barry, 39 Neb., 521, the judgment of the district court is
Affirmed.
