Supreme Court of Oklahoma

MEADORS
v.
JOHNSON.

J. A. Baker, for plaintiff in error. Crump, Rogers & Harris, for defendant in error.

DUNN, J.

¶1 This case presents error from the district court of Seminole county. The record consists of a purported case-made, regularly served, signed, authenticated, and filed. While counsel seeks to secure the reversal of a judgment of the trial court, the record contains no copy of the same, and it is not made to appear that the same is of record in the trial court. Counsel for defendant in error contend that on this account the case should be dismissed.

¶2 This question has been passed on a number of times by the Supreme Court of Oklahoma Territory, and the uniform holding seems to be that, in the absence of a judgment shown in the record, there is nothing presented to this court for its determination. Gardenshire v. Burdick,

¶3 The record before us does not show any final judgment was ever rendered in the case or is of record in the trial court, and in the absence of the same the case will of necessity be dismissed. Bettis v. Cargile et al.,

¶4 All the Justices concur.
