154 S.E.2d 14; 223 Ga. 172; 1967 Ga. LEXIS 455 (South Eastern Reporter, Second Series)

Opinion

Undercofler, Justice.

The judgment appealed from in this case was entered on November 7, 1966, denying a mandamus absolute. A notice of appeal was filed on November 28, 1966. The transcript of the evidence was filed in the office of the Clerk of the Superior Court of Fulton County on January 3, 1967. The record does not show any extension of time allowed for the filing of the transcript of evidence as provided for by Code Ann. § 6-804 (Ga. L. 1965, pp. 18, 21) and since the transcript of evidence was not filed within 30 days under the mandatory requirement of Code Ann. § 6-806 (Ga. L. *173 1965, pp. 18, 26), the appeal is dismissed. Threatt v. McElreath, 223 Ga. 153, and Davis v. Davis, 222 Ga. 579 (151 SE2d 123). Such being the case, it is not necessary to consider the cross appeal.
