Amended Code, § 329.

§ 1169. Upon an appeal from a judgment or order, the appellate court may reverse, affirm or modify the judgment or order appealed from, in the respect mentioned in the notice of appeal, and as to any or all of the parties, and may, if necessary or proper, order a new trial.

Amended Code, § 330.

§ 1170. The appeal allowed by the second and third chapters of this title, must be taken within two years after the judgment, if heretofore rendered, and within one year after a judgment hereafter rendered.

Amended Code, § 331, changed so as to reduce the time for appealing from judgments rendered hereafter, see next note.

1171. The appeal allowed by the fourth chapter of this title, must be taken, within sixty days after written notice of the judgment or order shall have been given. to the party appealing.

Amended Cole, § 332, changed so as to extend the time from thirty to sixty days.

Two years after judgment are deemed too long a time, producing unnecessary delay in the final settlement of the rights of parties. On the other hand, thirty days are too short a limitation for appeals, requiring the same security and the same delibeliberation.

§ 1172. The appellant must furnish the court with copies of the notice of appeal, and of the order or judgment roll. If he fail to do so, the appeal may be dismissed.
