Loomer v. Scott

Supreme Court of Oklahoma
Loomer v. Scott, 141 P. 1107 (Okla. 1914)
43 Okla. 212; 1914 OK 280; 1914 Okla. LEXIS 493
Kane

Loomer v. Scott

Opinion of the Court

KANE, C. J.

This cause comes on to be heard upon a motion to dismiss the proceeding in error, in support of which there is an uncontradicted affidavit to the effect that the appeal in this cause now involves only moot questions of law, the determination of which can have no practical results. This is sufficient ground for sustaining the motion to dismiss. Bryan v. Sullivan, 29 Okla. 686, 119 Pac. 124; McCullough et al. v. Gilcrease, 40 Okla. 741, 141 Pac. 5.

The motion to dismiss is therefore sustained.

All the Justices concur.
