THOMAS v. KELLY.

APPEAL — Final Judgments — Default Judgment Set Aside — Judgment not Appealable. — A judgment vacating and setting aside a default judgment is not a final, appealable judgment within the meaning of the statutes authorizing appeals.

DRAPER, C.J.

This action was instituted by appellee by an original complaint to vacate and set aside a default judgment theretofore rendered against him and in favor of appellant. The court below, to which the cause was venued, granted that relief; appellant's motion for new trial was overruled and he attempts to prosecute an appeal to this court.

The judgment sought to be appealed from is not a final, appealable judgment within the meaning of our statutes authorizing appeals. § 2-3201, Burns' 1933. Karnes, Admr. v. Perisho (1938), 104 Ind. App. 584, 12 N.E.2d 403; Soil v. Soil (1936), 102 Ind. App. 112, 1 N.E.2d 311; Woodard v. Killen (1925), 196 Ind. 570, 148 N.E. 195.

The appeal is therefore dismissed on the court's own motion.

NOTE. — Reported in 58 N.E.2d 942.
