It appears from the transcript that this case came on for trial on the twentieth day of September, 1902, and a stipulation was entered into by respective counsel that each might have sixty days after the filing of the judgment within which to prepare and serve his bill of exceptions or statement of the case.
The judgment was filed September 22, 1902. Application was made by counsel for appellant on the nineteenth day of November, 1902, for an extension of the time in which to prepare and serve a bill of exceptions, or statement, and the judge granted an extension of thirty days in addition to the sixty days covered by said stipulation. The ninety days included in the stipulation and order of the judge expired on the twenty-first day of December, 1902.
No further extension was asked for or granted until the twenty-sixth day of December, 1902, on which date an application was made and on it the judge granted an extension of time for twenty days, provided, however, that the time already granted had not expired.
