Opinion:
Opinion of the Court by
Chief Justice Clay
Dismissing appeal.
This is an appeal from a judgment in favor of appellee for $45, with interest and costs.
Since the jurisdiction of this court in actions for the recovery of money is limited to cases where the amount in controversy is $200, exclusive of interest and costs, it follows that the appeal cannot be entertained. Section 950, Kentucky Statutes, Baldwin's Supplement 1926; Thomas v. Thomas, 162 Ky. 630, 172 S. W. 1054.
Appeal dismissed.
