The motion to dismiss the appeal in this cause assigns as grounds therefor, that the appeal was taken from an interlocutory order of the court below, and not from a final judgment.
The record discloses that appellees, Brown and Thu in, brought an action upon a promissory note against the appellant, the complaint being filed at the September term, 1879, of the County Court of Lake County.
*346Appellant appeared, answered the complaint, and filed his cross-complaint. At the November term, 1879, the default of plaintiffs below was entered for failure to answer the cross-complaint, and afterwards, at the same term, judgment wa.s entered against the plaintiffs in favor of the appellant on the cross-complaint, for the sum of two hundred and twenty-six dollars and costs of suit; the judgment reciting that this was the amount due the defendant after allowing plaintiffs the full amount of their claim.
The plaintiffs below filed a motion at the January term, 1880, to vacate the judgmeit, which motion was allowed, and this appeal is prayed from the order vacating the judgment.
However erroneous 'the action of the court may have been in sustaining a motion made at a subsequent term to vacate a judgment entered at a previous term, no appeal lies to this court from such order. It is in no sense a final judgment or decree. Laws 1879, p. 226, Sec. 26.
The appellant having mistaken his remedy, the appeal must be dismissed at his costs. Motion sustained and
Appeal dismissed.
