Lizama v Bank of America [1974] TTLawRp 35; 6 TTR 634 (14 May 1974)

6 TTR 634

JOSE Q. LIZAMA, Appellant

v.

BANK OF AMERICA, Appellee

Civil Appeal No. 89

Trial Division of the High Court

Mariana Islands District

May 14, 1974

BURNETT, Chief Justice

Judgment was entered herein on August 29, 1972, with notice of appeal filed September 26, 1972. On October 20, 1972, counsel for appellant was advised of the estimated cost of transcript. He was again reminded by letter from the Clerk of Courts, on August 3, 1973, and referred to our rules governing appellate procedure.

Appellant has done nothing to perfect his appeal, now pending for well over a year; Appellee moves to dismiss. It may be noted, in passing, that neither the notice of appeal, nor notice of cross-appeal filed October 4, 1972 meet the requirement of our rules.

It is, therefore, ordered, that this appeal be, and it hereby is, dismissed.
