The question raised by this appeal involves the right of the county or district judge to require the appellant on appeal from the justice of the peace court to make a cash deposit to cover the costs in the appellate court and to dismiss the appeal upon the failure to comply with such a requirement.
This exact question was passed upon by ibis court in the case of St. Louis & S. F. R. Co. v. McAllister, 56 Okla. 244, 155 Pac. 1123, and was there answered in the negative. Following that case we recommend- that the judgment be reversed, and the cause remanded. with instructions that the dismissal he set aside and same reinstated.
By the Court: It is so ordered.
