This case presents for review the judgment of the court below dismissing plaintiff in error's action in that court. The motion to dismiss by defendant in error, defendant below, contains three alleged grounds for dismissal. The motion to dismiss was not verified, and the facts set forth in two of the grounds alleged in the motion are such as the trial court could not, and this court cannot, take judicial knowledge of, and required *Page 607 evidence to establish them. The case-made fails to disclose what, if any, evidence was taken at the hearing upon the motion, and what, if any, admissions were made by counsel at the hearing of the motion before the court. Counsel for plaintiff in error in his brief states that certain facts were admitted by all parties in presenting the motion to the court below, and briefs his case upon the theory that such facts are before the court. Plaintiff in error's brief supporting his assignments of error was promptly filed under the rules of the court; but, although this cause has been pending more than two years, defendant in error has filed no brief, nor does any reason appear for his failure to do so. We have examined the brief of plaintiff in error, and it seems to sustain both in argument and in the citation of authorities the assignment of error relied upon by him for reversal. We shall, therefore, not examine the record to ascertain if there is any possible theory upon which the judgment of the trial court can be sustained.Rudd v.
