Head Matter:
YENDES, Plaintiff-Appellee, v SHAW, ET, Defendant-Appellant.
Ohio Appeals, Second District, Montgomery County.
No. 1955.
Decided September 10th, 1947.
Beigel & Mahrt, Dayton, for plaintiff-appellee.
T. L. Barger, Dayton, for defendant-appellant.

Opinion:
OPINION
By THE COURT
Submitted on motion to dismiss the appeal on the ground that the order appealed from is not a final order.
The defendant-appellant filed three separate defenses and a cross petition. The trial court sustained a demurrer to the second and third defenses and the cross petition. The defendant-appellant not desiring to plead further, the second and third defenses and the cross petition were dismissed.
An order sustaining a demurrer without dismissing the action is not a final order, as the Court may grant leave to amend: National Guarantee & Finance Company v Russell; 25 Abs 483. However, an order sustaining a demurrer to the second and third defenses and cross petition, and dismissing said defenses and cross-petition, is a final order within the provisions of §12223-2 GC from which an appeal may be taken: Latham v Ransome Concrete Machinery Co., 13 Abs 63; More-head v Central Trust Co., 54 Oh Ap 9.
The motion to dismiss the appeal is overruled.
WISEMAN, PJ, MILLER and HORNBECK, JJ, concur.
