• 84 Ill. 247

Syllabus

<p>1. Judgment for delinquent taxes —limiting time for filing objections. The county court has the power to make a rule limiting the time for filing objections to judgment against delinquent lands for taxes, and may enforce the same by refusing to receive objections after the expiration of a reasonable time thus fixed.</p> <p>2. Appeal—from county to circuit court. The statute allowing an appeal from the county to the circuit court, on judgments against lands for taxes, being repealed on July 1,1875, no appeal will lie to the circuit court where final judgment is rendered after that day, although the application for judgment is made and the land owner defaulted in June, 1875.</p> <p>3. Same—none lies from an order of default. The entry of an order defaulting a defendant is not a final judgment from which an appeal lies.</p>
