S. 1949, 60-3826, ‘Rules of the Supreme Court’ No. 5) provides that the party seeking appellate review of a trial court’s order or judgment shall include in his abstract a specification of the errors of which he complains, separately set forth and numbered. “Where an appellant has made no attempt to conform with the requirements of the rule mentioned in the preceding paragraph of this syllabus and has failed to specify as error the sustaining of a demurrer to his evidence appellate review of that ruling is precluded and his appeal will be dismissed.” (Syl. f f 1 &2.)”
