76 Cal. 323 | Cal. | 1888
This is an appeal from a final judgment in divorce proceedings, from an order refusing a new trial and dismissing the motion therefor, and from an order refusing to set aside and vacate the order above mentioned.
As the appellant confesses, there is no record here upon which an appeal from the judgment can be considered.
The order refusing a new trial and dismissing the motion therefor was itself appealable.
It has been often held by this court that it will not take jurisdiction of an appeal taken from an order refusing to set aside an order itself appealable. (Tripp v. Santa Rosa Street R. R. Co., 69 Cal. 632, and cases cited.)
There being in the transcript no statement on appeal, no bill of exceptions, and no papers indentifiable as the papers used on the hearing of the motion to dismiss, the validity and regularity of the order of dismissal is not reviewable on appeal. “The presumption is, that the order was properly made, and in the absence of a bill of exceptions or statement on appeal making the motion and order part of the record of the case, that presumption is conclusive.” (Strathern v. Dakin, 63 Cal. 479; citing Nash v. Harris, 57 Cal. 242.)
We therefore advise that the appeal from the judgment and order last made refusing to set aside the order denying a new trial and dismissing the motion therefor be dismissed, and that the order last mentioned be affirmed.
Belcher, C. C., concurred.
For the reasons given in the foregoing opinion, the appeal from the judgment and order last made refusing to set aside the order denying a new trial and dismissing the motion therefor is dismissed, and order denying a new trial is affirmed.
