¶1Appellee Arthur H. Wicker filed a divorce suit in the Garland Chancery Court. Appellant Sudie Crump Wicker, defendant in the Chancery Court, filed a motion to dismiss the cause alleging that appellee was not a bona fide resident of Garland County. The Chancellor overruled the motion and Sudie Crump Wicker has appealed.
¶2The order overruling the motion to dismiss was not a final judgment from which an appeal will lie. If this court should at this time sustain the Chancellor’s order overruling the motion to dismiss, the case would still stand for trial on its merits. Meantime the defendant may file some other motion. An appeal can not be taken from an order of a chancery court which is not a final order. Davis v. Hale, 114 Ark. 426, 170 S. W. 99; Durben v. Montgomery, 144 Ark. 153, 221 S. W. 855; and Beloate, Executor, v. Smith, 212 Ark. 39, 204 S. W. 2d 908.
¶3“This court has always held, before and ever since the adoption of the. Code (1869), that, where there is no final judgment, no appeal lies, and that an appeal will be dismissed for want of a final judgment. ’ ’ Flanagan v. Drainage Dist. No. 17, 176 Ark. 31, 2 S. W. 2d 70.
¶4Therefore the appeal in this case is dismissed and the cause is remanded for. further proceedings.
