JUSTICE ROBERTS delivered the opinion of the Consequent to an appeal taken from a judgment rendered against appellants in the above-entitled cause, tried in the Eighth Judicial Circuit Court, Nimba County, this case has been brought before us. When it was called for hearing, appellees filed a motion to dismiss the appeal, alleging that appellants have failed and neglected to perfect their appeal, in that no notice of the completion of the appeal was served upon appellees and the appeal bond is insufficient and does not conform to statute. When the motion was called for hearing, no one appeared for the appellants nor the appellees ; the motion was ordered read, and considering the substantial grounds contained in the motion, to which appellants filed no resistance, this Court sustains the motion. The motion is, therefore, granted. And the Clerk of this Court is hereby ordered to send a mandate to the court below informing it of this judgment, and ordering it to resume jurisdiction and enforce its judgment, with costs against appellants. And it is hereby so ordered. 137
