This appeal comes from the court of common pleas of Tulsa county, Oklahoma, Division three. The case was tried to the court and jury November 1, 1949, and the jury returned verdict same day, $200, for the plaintiffs. Defendants filed motion for new trial November 5, 1949, and same was overruled December 5, 1949, to which defendants excepted and have appealed to this court. *Page 181 
It will be observed that the motion for new trial was one day late and there being no showing that plaintiffs in error were unavoidably prevented from filing their motion for new trial within the time provided by 12 O.S. 1951 § 653[12-653], the right of appeal was lost.

For other cases see 12 O.S. 1951 § 653[12-653], note 1.
