Mechanical Appliance Co. v. A. Kieckhefer Elevator Co.
Mechanical Appliance Co. v. A. Kieckhefer Elevator Co.
Opinion of the Court
In this action, commenced in tbe Milwaukee county civil court, judgment was rendered in that court for tbe plaintiff, and tbe defendant appealed therefrom to tbe circuit court, where tbe judgment was reversed and a new trial ordered. Tbe plaintiff has appealed to this court from this order, and tbe respondent now moves to dismiss tbe appeal on tbe ground that tbe order is not appealable.
Tbe motion must be denied. It. was held in Pabst B. Co. v. Milwaukee L. Co. 156 Wis. 615, 146 N. W. 879, that an order of the circuit court reversing a judgment of tbe civil court and ordering a retrial of tbe case in tbe circuit court “grants a new trial” and hence is appealable under tbe express language of sub. (3), sec. 3069, Stats., enumerating
The final sentence of the opinion in the case of Witt v. Voigt, 162 Wis. 568, 156 N. W. 954, is construed as an intimation that the proviso in question applies to a case like the present. The point was not before the court, however, in that case, and we are satisfied that the proviso does not apply.
By the Court. — Motion denied, without costs.
