ORDER
Upon consideration of the petition for certiorari and reply thereto, briefs of counsel and the entire record, the Court is of the opinion that the petition for certiorari should be and the same is hereby denied.
Denial of the petition does not indicate approval by this Court of the conclusion of the Court of Appeals that the defendant's appeal from the divorce decree entered on March 22, 1977, was untimely filed. In our opinion, that decree did not become final and appealable until the final decree was entered on August 12, 1977. Saunders v. Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County, 214 Tenn. 703, 383 S.W.2d 28 (1964).
Costs are adjudged against the Petitioner.
