Syllabus

<p>New Trial.—Where a Cause has Been Referred to a Referee, Who Returns His Decision and judgment to the court, the date of their filing is to legal intent the date of their rendering, and they have not until then a legal existence upon which a motion for a new trial might be based. Stipulated statements, notices, or other proceedings, had before the date of such filing, are wholly insufficient as a basis of a motion for a new trial.*</p>
