182 P. 925 | Nev. | 1920
This is a motion to- dismiss an appeal. The notice of appeal is as follows:
“To Contestees, Clarissa Church, acting for herself and as guardian for Benjamin Barber, and George C. Russell, executor of the estate of Lyman Barber, deceased,and to George Springmeyer,their attorney:
“Please take notice that contesant, Eugene Scossa, in the above-entitled proceeding hereby appeals to the Supreme Court of the State of Nevada from the order of determination, and from the supplemental order of determination of the State Engineer in the above-entitled proceeding, filed and returned in the above-entitled court,' and from the whole thereof, and also appeals from the decree of the above-entitled court, confirming, approving, and affirming said relative determination, and as amended and modified by the supplemental order of determination as made and entered by the State Engineer of the State of Nevada and filed in the above-entitled court, made and entered January 30, 1919, and from the whole thereof, said decree being in favor of defendants, and against said plaintiff, contestant.
“Dated March 12, 1919.”
The respondents move to dismiss the appeal on several grounds, and for convenience we shall dispose of them in their order.
Gill v. Goldfield Consolidated Mines Co., 43 Nev. 1, 176 Pac. 784, is cited as an authority.in support of this position. It is proper to state in this connection that that case is now pending upon an order granting a rehearing therein.
This case being an appeal from a decree, we can look to the judgment roll to ascertain whether any error appears. This being true, the appeal should not be dismissed.
The motion to dismiss the appeal is denied.
