The defendant moves the Court to strike out the statement of case on appeal and to affirm the judgment upon the face of the record. The motion is allowed. The statement of the case on appeal is in no sense in compliance with the rules of this Court or with tbe provisions of the Eevisal, sec. 591.
Tbe statement served upon tbe appellee purports to be nothing more than a mere skeleton, and may be illustrated by the following extract:
This was a civil action, tried at June Term, 1914, of Burke Superior Court, before his Honor, B. F. Long, judge, and a jury. (The clerk will here copy the first paragraph of the notes of the stenographer as shown by tbe first page of the said notes and the first six (6) lines of second page of the said notes.)
The defendant offered tbe following evidence, viz.;
(The clerk will here copy the evidence offered by the defendant as shown by the stenographer’s notes, including any and all objections and exceptions consecutively, and number tbe same consecutively from one (1) to four (4), inclusive.)
Here tbe defendant closed the evidence, and the plaintiffs also closed.
The court instructed the jury as follows, viz.:
(The clerk will here copy the judge’s charge.)
*258Tbe statute, as well as tbe rules of tbis Court, require a plain and concise statement of tbe case on appeal, and tbat tbe evidence shall be stated in narrative form, so far as possible, and tbe exceptions shall be numbered and tbe assignments of error properly grouped and set up.
It is not tbe duty of tbe clerk of tbe court to make up a case on appeal for tbe appellant, nor to fill up tbe blank spaces. It is tbe duty of tbe appellant to make up bis case and fully perfect it before it is served upon tbe appellee.
Judgment affirmed.
