Head Matter:
Nos. 381-382.
Puente et al. v. Puente et al.
Appeal from the District Court of Ponce. Motion of the appellants to produce as evidence certain original documents and record of proceedings had for the declaration of heirship.
Decided June 17, 1910.
Messrs. Harry P. Leake and W. Vincent Robbins for petitioners. Messrs. Lord, Toro and Canales, Antonio Alvares Nava and Domingo Sepulveda for respondent.'

Opinion:
Motion denied, the court stating in its decision that when the appellant fails in his duty to present a complete and faithful transcript the respondent is not bound to supply his omission; but, for this reason alone, may move for the dismissal of the appeal should something necessary and material to its decision be lacking, and the documents were refused admission because they had been presented too late.
