Johnson v. Crowder
Johnson v. Crowder
Opinion of the Court
The record in this case was filed Nov. 30, 1894. The cause was submitted Jan. 12, 1895. No brief has been filed by appellant, save that which is styled a supersedeas brief. Appellee moves to dismiss for want of brief within sixty days of submission as required by Rule 19.
A supersedeas brief properly referring to the record and stating concisely some of the propositions relied upon for reversal, with an argument supporting the same, will be sufficient to prevent a dismissal under this rule. Louisville, etc., R. W. Co. v. Widman,
The supersedeas brief in this case, however, contains neither argument nor authorities. It is merely a brief statement of the rulings of the court relied upon as erroneous. This falls far short of being such a brief as conforms to the requirements of the law. Island Coal Co. v. Clemmitt, 12 Ind. App. 206.
Appeal dismissed.
