The question arises out of a suit by Herman Schuck against petitioner in the justice oi the peace court of the municipal district of Talipao, Province of Sulu, in which after trial of the case, judgment was rendered in favor of said respondent. Thereafter, and within the period of time authorized by law, petitioner filed his notice of appeal and the said appeal was filed, registered, and docketed in the Court of First Instance, for the Province of Sulu, within the period allowed for making the appeal. Respondent, Herman Schuck, filed a motion to dismiss said appeal on the grounds that the petitioner had not complied with the "requirements of section 76, of the Code of Civil Procedure as amended by Act No. 3615.

The respondent judge held, that the appeal had not been properly perfected according to law, and dismissed the appeal. This was a final disposition of the legal proceeding then pending in the Court of First Instance of Sulu.(Mejia vs. Alimorong, 4 Phil., 572.)
