45 Ind. App. 592 | Ind. Ct. App. | 1910
Appellant sought to improve a certain alley within its corporate limits, under section 111 of an act of the General Assembly of 1905 (Acts 1905, p. 219, §8716 Burns 1908), and assessed benefits to pay therefor. Under the provisions of said act, appellee, upon the completion of the assessment roll and its delivery to the department of finance, appealed to the Montgomery Circuit Court, by his written verified petition, showing that the assessment on appellee’s property was excessive, and asked the court to appoint disinterested freeholders to reassess such benefits.
Appellant demurred to the petition, the demurrer being overruled. Appraisers were appointed, a reassessment made, and appellee’s assessment was reduced $30, which was a reduction of more than ten per cent of the first assessment, and the court thereupon entered judgment against the appellant for costs and appraisers’ fees. This appeal is taken from this alleged judgment.
Since no appeal in this matter is authorized, we have no jurisdiction, and the appeal is dismissed,
