¶1 This case was appealed from the district court of Cotton county in which judgment was rendered on the 12th day of December, 1917. Motion for a new trial was overruled on the 18th day of December, 1917. Petition in error and case-made was filed in this court on the 21st day of June, 1918, which was more than six months after the overruling of final order appealed from. The case is now before the court on motion of defendant in error to dismiss the appeal for the reason that the cause was not filed in this court within the six months allowed by statute.
