The appellant filed a petition with the workmen’s compensation bureau, on September 27th, 1921, claiming compensation for an injury that occurred on March 25th, 1920, while he was working for defendant. He continued to work until March 20th, 1921, when he went to the hospital. The deputy commissioner before whom the case was tried dismissed the petition because it was not filed within one year from the date of the accident, as provided for in the Workmen’s Compensation act. The petitioner appealed to the Essex Common Pleas, which dismissed the appeal, and he removed the order of the Common Pleas into the Supreme Court by certiorari, where the order of the Common Pleas was affirmed. He now appeals here. The Supreme Court says that petitioner asked to review the validity of a judgment of the Court of Common Pleas dismissing his petition for compensation under the statute, for the reason that the petition was not filed within a year from the happening of the accident, as required by the act. This is not an accurate statement. The motion to dismiss the petition was made to the workmen’s compensation bureau and was granted by it. The motion in the Common Pleas was not to dismiss the petition for compensation — the bureau had done that — but was to dismiss the appeal from that decision, and it was dismissed for the same reason that moved the deputy commissioner to dismiss the petition. With the opinion in other respects we are content.
Judgment affirmed, with costs.
