An appellant’s application for an extension of time for filing his brief, upon the ground that pressure of business lias prevented him from preparing it within the thirty days allowed, will be denied where no statement of the evidence was filed, and the only grounds upon which the appeal can be heard are purely technical, relating to notice of calendaring and hearing the cause, and to the approval without notice or audit of the report of a receiver appointed therein.</p>
