““Motions-, affidavits in support thereof, and rulings made thereon are no part of the record proper, unless made so by case-made or bill of exceptions; and where the errors complained of could only be reviewed upon a case-made or bill of exceptions, and the appeal is by transcript, the appeal will be dismissed.””

quoted by 1 later decision, including Harris v. Doggett

““A motion to vacate a judgment and the order made thereon are no part of the record, and unless the proceedings thereon are incorporated in a case-made or bill of exceptions and duly presented to this court, the error predicated upon such motion and order will not be reviewed.””

PER CURIAM.

¶1 On the 17th day of December, 1930, a judgment was rendered in the trial court, and thereafter the defendants filed motion to vacate the said judgment, and on the 13th day of February, 1935, tbe court entered its order vacating and setting aside said judgment, from which plaintiff appeals.

¶2 Although a case-made was served upon the defendants in error, the same was never set- *512 tied and signed by tbe judge, nor is it stipulated that the same is a true and correct case-made. The appeal is therefore by transcript.

¶3 This court has many times held that motion and the rulings made thereon are no part of the record unless incorporated in a case-made or bill of exceptions and presented to this court. Hill v. Okla. Life Ins. Co., 173 Okla. 472, 50 P. (2d) 320; First National Bank v. McIntosh, 113 Okla. 15, 237 P. 460; Lamb v. Young, 24 Okla. 614, 104 P. 335; Exchange Nat. Bank v. Merritt, 104 Okla 184, 235 P. 180; Whitaker v. Chestnut, 65 Okla. 122, 165 P. 160. The motion to vacate and the order thereon therefore are not before this court.

¶4 The appeal is therefore dismissed.
