Opinion

No. 20,197.

Decided March 18, 1963.

From a judgment dismissing their complaint the plaintiffs bring error.

Writ of Error Dismissed.

1. APPEAL AND ERROR — Record — Failure to Show Motion for New Trial or Order Dispensing Therewith — Dismissal of Writ of Error. Where record fails to show filing of a motion for a new trial, or an order of the trial court dispensing therewith, the writ of error will be dismissed.

Error to the County Court of Otero County, Hon. Hal. G. Chapman, Judge.

Mr. D. E. JOHNSON, for plaintiffs in error. Messrs. MITCHELL FORBES, for defendants in error.


MARTINEZ' complaint was dismissed by the trial court on the ground that it failed to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. To the judgment of dismissal he brings a writ of error to this court without having filed a motion for a new trial or obtaining an order of the trial court dispensing therewith.

Under the authority of Minshall v. Pettit, 151 Colo. 501, 379 P.2d 394 (1963), and Bayers v. W.O.W., Inc., et al., 151 Colo. 554, 379 P.2d 815 (1963), the writ of error is dismissed.

MR. JUSTICE HALL and MR. JUSTICE PRINGLE concur.
