(after stating the facts). Joe Bandy filed his motion to set aside the divorce decree in favor of his wife, on the second day of December, 1924, and it was overruled by the court on January 5, 1925, which was during the same term of the court. The sole ground relied upon to set aside the divorce decree was that it w;as prematurely rendered. The record show's that it was the practice of the court to hear divorce cases on oral testimony; and the case against the defendant, Joe Bandy, was postponed for the purpose of giving him an opportunity to defend the suit.

When the case was called for hearing, the defendant, Joe Bandy, was present in the courtroom, and made no defense to the action. Under these circumstances, his presence in court amounted to a consent that the case should he heard and determined. He had the opportunity to make any defense to the action that he might have, and, having failed to do so, he is not in an attitude to complain that the court refused to set aside the divorce decree.

.The record shows that the plaintiff, Fredea Bandy, acted throughout in the. utmost good- faith, and, since the decree of divorce was determined, has married another man in the State of Missouri.

It follows that the decree of the chancery court refusing to set aside the divorce decree should be affirmed, and it is so ordered.
