Opinion
Adelia R. Browne, Respondent, v. Helen F. Taylor et al., Appellants.
A notice of motion to dismiss an appeal to this court is not fatally defective because of an omission, to specify therein upon what papers the motion will be made; the nature of the motion apprises the appellant that it is based upon the record.
(Argued May 22, 1877 ;
decided May 29, 1877.)
These were motions to dismiss appeals. The notices of motion did not specify the papers upon which they were based. Held as above.
M. P. Mason, for motion.
S. J. Crooke, opposed.
[MAJORITY — Earl, J.,]
