TAYLOR v. LONG-BELL LUMBER CO. Annotate this Case TAYLOR v. LONG-BELL LUMBER CO. 1914 OK 376 142 P. 1036 43 Okla. 230 Case Number: 5639 Decided: 08/18/1914 Supreme Court of Oklahoma TAYLOR v. LONG-BELL LUMBER CO. Syllabus ¶0 APPEAL AND ERROR--Moot Question--Dismissal of Appeal. Where a proceeding in error involves only a moot question of law, the cause will be dismissed. Hinch & Bradley, for plaintiff in error. F. L. Boynton, for defendant in error. BLEAKMORE, J. ¶1 This is a proceeding in error to review the action of the trial court in overruling a motion to vacate and set aside an order of sale of real estate in a foreclosure proceeding, and it now comes on to be heard upon motion to dismiss the appeal. Since the case was lodged in this court, the land involved has been sold under judgment of the court below in another action for the foreclosure of a prior mortgage, in which said last-mentioned proceeding the parties hereto were made parties and their rights fully determined. The appeal in this case, therefore, involves only a moot question of law; and the motion to dismiss is sustained. McCullough v. Gilcrease, 40 Okla. 741 , 141 P. 5 , and cases there cited. ¶2 All the Justices concur.
