In this case, the errors assigned are based upon the ruling of the Court upon instructions given and refused, and upon the question of the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the verdict.
' The record shows that, as to these points, the Court granted thirty days to prepare bills of exceptions, &c., and those contained in the record were not filed until long after that time.
There is, among the papers on file in the case in this Court, a statement or certificate, purporting to have been
There is a motion here to strike out the bill of exceptions. There was no subsequent order of Court, of record, granting leave to file it.
Whether, under the circumstances, an order of Court permitting the party to file such bills after the time limited by the record, would have rendered valid such act, is a question not, therefore, before us. As the record stands, the bill of exceptions is not properly a part thereof. The certificate of the person acting as judge, made out of Court, and not in any form made a part of the record, cannot be considered.
The record presents no question for our determination. Simonton v. The Huntington, &c., 12 Ind. R. 380.
The judgment is affirmed with costs.
