MURRAY, C. J.

¶1— It has been repeatedly held by us that the courts below have no power to disturb a judgment after the expiration of the term except in the single ease where the defendant has not been served with process.

¶2The order appealed from was irregular and is therefore vaca'.ed.

We concur: Heydenfeldt, J.; Terry, J.
