MEMORANDUM OPINION
This is an appeal from the denial of the plaintiffs' petition to revoke a certificate issued by the public utilities commission to the defendant to engage in the common carriage of passengers by irregular route, and from the denial of their subsequent motion for rehearing. RSA 541:6. The defendant moved in this court to dismiss the appeal for failure to file the appeal "[w]ithin thirty days after the application for a rehearing [was] denied ...." RSA 541:6.
The plaintiffs' motion for rehearing was denied by the commission under date of July 24, 1975, and notice of the denial was received by their counsel on July 28, 1975. Their appeal, executed under date of August 25, 1975, was filed with this court on August 27, 1975.
