Syllabus ¶0 APPEAL AND ERROR--Case-Made--Service--Time. A case-made not served within the time fixed by an order of court is a nullity, and cannot be considered by the Supreme Court on appeal. Error from County Court, Sequoyah County; J. G. McCombs, Judge. Action by the Pope Feed Store against J. S. Lucas. Judgment for defendant, and plaintiff brings error. Dismissed. J. H. Jarman, for plaintiff in error. Frye & Frye, for defendant in error. DUDLEY, C. ¶1 The defendant in error has filed a motion to dismiss this proceeding in error for the reason, among others, that the purported case-made was not served within the time fixed by the trial court. An examination of the record discloses a final judgment was rendered on March 20, 1913, and plaintiff given 60 days within which to prepare and serve case-made. The case-made was served on May 20, 1913. The time expired on May 19th. It follows that the case-made was not served within the time. This being true, it is a nullity, and cannot be considered by the court. ¶2 The cause should therefore be dismissed. Hughes v. Martin, 43 Okla. 710 , 144 P. 356. ¶3 By the Court: It is so ordered.
