Opinion

45003.

SUBMITTED JANUARY 13, 1970.

DECIDED JANUARY 21, 1970. REHEARING DENIED FEBRUARY 6, 1970.

Appellate procedure. Augusta Municipal Court. Before Judge Mixon.

Albert G. Ingram, McDonald C. Haynie, for appellant.

John H. Ruffin, Jr., for appellee.


The appellee filed a motion to dismiss the appeal. The motion shows that the case was docketed in this court on October 31, 1969; that the enumeration of errors was filed on November 21, 1969; that Rule 15 of this court requires that the enumeration of errors be filed within twenty days after docketing; and that the appellant's enumeration of errors was filed on the twenty-first day after the case was docketed.

The motion to dismiss is granted. Rentfrow v. Smith, 225 Ga. 493 ( 169 S.E.2d 807).

Appeal dismissed. Hall, P. J., Deen and Evans, JJ., concur.

SUBMITTED JANUARY 13, 1970 — DECIDED JANUARY 21, 1970 — REHEARING DENIED FEBRUARY 6, 1970.


I concur in invitum for the reasons set forth in my concurrence in Dowling v. State, 120 Ga. App. 810, 812: "every technical dismissal of a case in the appellate courts results not only in a possible miscarriage of justice to the parties but also in a loss of respect for the courts."
