Syllabus

<p>Appeal — Dismissal for Failure to Print Record — Motion to Reinstate.</p> <p>A motion to reinstate an appeal will be denied where it appeared that the appeal was docketed on March 12th, and reached in regular order on March 13th, when it was dismissed for failure to print the record, under the rules, though counsel for appellant being present during the call of the district, and not seeing the case on docket, left before the call was concluded. The dismissal was not for failure to argue, but for failure to print, and this was not a professional duty, and the negligence was that of the client.</p>
