<p>APPELLATE PRACTICE—DISMISSED FOR FAILURE FILE PROPERLY CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT—APPLICA__ TION TO REINSTATE CAUSE AND TO SUPPLY PROPERLY CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT, COMES TOO LATE AFTER FINAL DISPOSITION OF CAUSE.</p> <p>■When a cause is reached in its regular order on the dockets of this court for final disposition, and the court finds that the transcript of record is so defectively certified as to amount to no certification at all, the cause will be dismissed. And when so dismissed the same will not be reinstated, nor leave granted to supply a properly certified transcript, unless it be shown that the failure to file a properly certified transcript of the record prior to the reaching of the cause by the court for final disposition was due to some good cause beyond the control of counsel representing the plaintiff in error or appellant. Mere inadvertence, oversight or neglect of counsel will not be regarded as an excuse for such failure.</p>
