<p>1. Appeals — Using Brief on Former Appeal, Motion — Belated Appeal, Effect.</p> <p>Appellant’s motion for an order allowing him to use upon present appeal the printed brief filed on former appeal, is denied; the appeal itself having been taken too late.</p> <p>3. Appeals — Order, Time for Appeal from — Notice of Order by Mail, Whether Time Extended Sixty Days.</p> <p>The fact that notice of filing of an order was served by mail, does not effectuate an extension of time for an additional sixty days after service of written notice of order, (Sec. 3146, Rev. Code 1919), within the meaning of Sec. 2585, providing that service by mail “shall be double the time required in cases of personal service;” that this section applies where party giving notice thereby seeks to fix date for doing of something at a certain time in future, and is inapplicable, to notice of a past event, even though giving of such notice might have started running of a statute of limitations against party receiving same.

<p>1. Appeal — Order Denying “Temporary Resti’aining Order,” Whetli- ’ er an Order Denying a ‘ ‘Temporary Injunction,” Whether appealable.</p> <p>' ‘There is a clear distinction between an order constituting a temporary injunction, and one constituting a temporary restraining order; a “restraining order” being operative only until a bearing can be bad upon an application for an injunction, while a “temporary injunction/’ is an order operative usually until final bearing of the case in which it is issued; the restraint the order purports to impose, and not the name given it, determines its true name and character.</p> <p>3. Injunctions — Order Granting Injunction Distinguished from Order to Show Cause and Temporarily Restraining — Hearing— , Statute Misapprehension in Drafting Orden.</p> <p>While under 'Sec. 2425, Rev. Code 1919, an injunction may be granted at commencement of the action or at any time thereafter, yet an order granting the injunction would not provide, • as does the one at bar, for a hearing at which respondent '“should show cause * * why the court should not issue a temporary restraining order, restraining and enjoining defendants, * * pending the trial * * or until the further order of this court,” and further providing that until such hearing defendants “are hereby restrained and enjoined,” etc.; the use of the term, “temporary restraining order,” as used in said order, clearly disclosing that the party drawing same failed to distinguish a “temporary restraining order” from a “temporary injunction,” — what he clearly intended to seek upon return date of order to show cause.</p> <p>3. Injunctions — Granting Injunction, Statute Requiring TJhdertaking, Order to Show Cause With Meantime Restraining Order, Distinguished — Statutes—Recitals in Order, Designations by Counsel, Failing to Discriminate.</p> <p>' Under Sec. 2427, Rev. Code 1919, providing that, upon granting an injunction, “the court or judge shall require a written undertaking,” etc., held, that an order to show cause why an injunction should not be granted pending the litigation, and restraining defendant in the meantime, can be granted only under Sec. 2428, providing that if the court or judge deems it .proper that defendant * * should be heard before granting the injunction, an order may be made requiring cause to be shown * * why the injunction should not be granted, and the defendant 'may, in the meantime, be restrained. So held, where the order appealed from was one to show cause “why the court should not issue a temporary restraining order, “restraining and enjoining defendants * * pending the trial of this action or until the further order of this court,” and providing until such hearing defendants “are hereby restrained and enjoined,” etc.; it also appearing that trial court in said order refers to the order it is vacating as “the temporary restraining order,” and counsel refers to same as an order “temporarily restraining” and, a “show cause order,” that wherein counsel further refers to it as a “temporary restraining order and temporary injunction,” he afiled to distinguish between the two kinds of orders; it further appearing that the notice of appeal is from an order “ordering that the temporary restraining order * * :be * * set aside,” and. as an order “dissolving said temporary restraining order and injunction,” — again failing to distinguish between the two kinds of orders.</p> <p>4. Injunctions — Order to Show Cause Why “Temporary Restraining Order” Should Not Issue, Witli Meanwhile Injunction, Whether An Order “Vacating Injunction” — Recital of Order In Ai>peal Notice, In Order Fixing Undertaking.</p> <p>Trial court’s order to show cause why “the court should not issue a temporary restraining or.der, restraining and enjoining defendants * * pending the trial of this action or until the further order of this court,” and further providing that until said hearing defendants” are hereby restrained and enjoined” etc., is not an order “vacating an injunction;” and that appellant has not treated the order appealed from as one “denying an injunction” is shown by the notice of appeal, which recites that the order is one “ordering that the temporary restraining order * * “is hereby vacated and set aside, and further recites that the appeal is also from “said order dissolving said temporary restraining order” and a “temporary injunction” as being one and the same;; and by further proceedings on appeal (under Sec. 3160, Rev. Code 1919) in procuring an order fixing appeal undertaking, in which latter order the order appealed from is stayed instead of directing that “the injunction asked * * be allowed,” as would be the order upon appeal from an order denying an injunction.</p> <p>5. Appeals — Appealable Order — Tempoi'ary Restraining Order, Whether Appealable — Statute—Office of Tempoi’ary Restraining Order, Rower of Court.</p> <p>Under Subd. 3, Sec. 3168, Rev. Code 1919, designating among other orders, one dissolving an injunction as an appeal-able order, held', that an order to show cause why trial court should not issue “a temporary restraining order, restraining and enjoining defendants * * pending the trial of this action or until the further order of this court,” and further' providing that until said hearing, “defendants, * * are hereby restrained and enjoined,” etc. — is not an appealable order; that whether an order vacating a temporary restraining order is appealable, is answered by the query: “Could the appellant have appealed if the tidal court had made an order refusing to issue a “show cause order;” that the purpose of a temporary restraining order is merely to suspend proceedings until opportunity is given to inquire whether any injunction should be granted; its office is merely to preserve the status quo until a ■Rearing upon the question whether an injunction should be granted; and trial court, under Sec. 2428 Rev. Code 1919, would have had no power upon the determination of order to show cause, to make any order except one either granting . or refusing the “temporary” or pendente lite injunction appellant was seeking; if it had granted an order restraining deifendants during pendency of action, even though termed “a temporary order,” it wonuld in fact have 'been a “temporary injunction,” to support which would liavei required giving an undertaking; while the temporary restraining order would, ■ withput express order to that effect, terminate upon granting, or refusal of a temporary injunction; and appeal is dismissed.</p>
