International Express & Foundry Co. v. Allen
International Express & Foundry Co. v. Allen
Opinion of the Court
delivered the opinion of the court.
This is a motion to dismiss an appeal. The appellee, who asks for the dismissal, maintains that this is a proceeding for the trial of title to property and hence that the appeal should have been taken in accordance with section 19 of the Act of 1907, as amended in 1908, relating thereto and which provides that an appeal must be taken within, ten days. The appeal here was taken about twenty days after the judgment. The appellee cites the case of Schroeder v. Succession of Collazo Muñíz et al., 26 P. R. R. 664.
The appellant, on the other hand, maintains that this is an independent action and that it was not brought by virtue of the said Act of 1907. Examining the record we find that this was an independent action begun by the appellee claiming
Motion overruled.
