On Rehearing
Simultaneously with the filing of an application for rehearing in this cause, the appellee, Leo Bender, filed the following motion:
“Motion to set aside submission on rehearing
“Now comes the appellee, Leo Bender, and moves the Court to set aside the submission heretofore had in this cause, and upon said submission being set aside that the appellee be permitted to file his motion to strike the Court Reporter’s transcript of the evidence and further move for an affirmance of the judgment appealed from. For grounds of this motion the appellee says: the submission was had under a law which was void, ineffective and invalid; the judgment of reversal was therefore wholly void, illegal and invalid.”
In the case of Dewrell v. Kearley, 250 Ala. 18, 32 So.2d 812, the Supreme Court held that Act No. 352, Acts of 1945, p. 567 et seq., Code 1940, Tit. 7, § 827(1) et seq., is inoperative and void. It results that the original act, Act No. 461, General Acts 1943, p. 423, with Supreme Court Rule 48, Code 1940, Tit. 7 Appendix, remains in force and effect and must now control.
The provisions and stipulations of Supreme Court Rule 48 were not complied with in the instant appeal. Therefore, we see no good reason why we should set aside the submission in this cause and entertain a motion to strike the court reporter’s transcript of the evidence.
We will not attempt to make any further response to the questions we discussed and disposed of in our original opinion.
The motion to set aside the submission is denied.
The application for rehearing is ordered overruled.
