OPINION OP THE COURT.
(after stating the facts as above).
“In this jurisdiction, by r'eason of section 4185,. Code 1915, there are no terms of court except for jury trials, and a judgment which disposes of all, or one or more, of the separate and independent causes of action in the case, becomes a final judgment upon its rendition and entry, in the sense that the same passes from the further control of the court, and except a default judgment (section 4227, Code 1915), and an ir'regularly entered judgment (section 4230, Codel 1915,) and except for sucli purposes as all courts always retain control over their judgments.”
Therefore, the judgment in qnestion being a final one in its character, the error which the appellants now insist upon necessarily relates to matters which were not considered by the court, and which the court was not given ■an opportunity to correct.
For the reasons stated, we are of the opinion that the judgment of the district court must be affirmed; aud it is so ordered.
