PELHAM, J.
This is an appeal by the defendant in the court below from an order of the circuit court of Jefferson county, overruling a motion to set aside a judgment nil (licit rendered against defendant (appellant) in favor of the plaintiffs (appellees) and grant appellant a new trjal.
The motion of appellant (the defendant in the circuit court. )to .set aside the judgment theretofore rendered is not set out in the bill of exceptions, in accordance with section 2846 of the Code of 1907, nor is the motion shown to have been enrolled upon the court’s records by an order of the circuit court. Unless the motion is enrolled by 6i;der of the trial court, or set out in the bill of exceptions, this court is precluded from reviewing the ruling of the circuit court in overruling the motion.

Tuskaloosa Co., 99 Ala. 619, 12 South. *593918; Ewing v. Wofford, 122 Ala. 439, 25 South. 251; Craig v. Etheredge, 133 Ala. 284, 32 South. 65; Randall v. Worthington, 141 Ala. 497, 37 South. 594; Barton v. Charter Gas Engine Co., 154 Ala. 275, 45 South. 213; and authorities cited in these cases.
Under the authorities above cited, we are precluded from considering the question, and the judgment denying the motion is accordingly affirmed.
Affirmed.
