Per Curiam.
In Moore v. Brown, 10 Ohio, 197, it was held that the omission to enter notice at the term at which the judgment was entered could not be cured by a nunc pro tunc order' of a subsequent term. This case has not been overruled, and is decisive of the question here presented. The statute then required the notice to be- entered at the term, Swan, 1841, p. 682, sec. 124. The' statute, sec. 5227, Rev. Stat., now requires the' notice to be entered within three days, and so far as this question is concerned, that is the only difference, so that Moore v. Brown, supra, controls. The judge’s docket is not a record. A verbal'notice is not sufficient, nor is the matter within the control of the court. The party must enter notice on the record. Notice to the judge or court is not a compliance -with the statute, and the court cannot cure an omission by a nunc pro tunc entry of the notice.
