Supreme Court of Minnesota

75 N.W.2d 212 (Minn. 1956)

Opinion

No. 36,810.

February 17, 1956.

Appeal and error — requisites of appeal.

Appeal by defendant from an order of the District Court for Kandiyohi County, C. A. Rolloff, Judge, denying his petition for a writ of coram nobis. Upon motion of the plaintiff, appeal dismissed.

Warren H. Alm, pro se.

Miles Lord, Attorney General, and Charles E. Houston, Solicitor General, for respondent.



Plaintiff moves for a dismissal of the appeal of the defendant from the order of the District Court of Kandiyohi County denying defendant's petition for a writ of coram nobis. The motion is made upon the ground that the notice of appeal was not served either upon the county attorney or the attorney general. Defendant concedes that such service was not made. The appeal must be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

See, M.S.A. 632.02, 605.03; State v. Besse, 160 Minn. 533, 200 N.W. 356; State v. Newman, 188 Minn. 461, 247 N.W. 576. Whether the review should be some other remedy than appeal we need not determine.
