Opinion

We think that the Municipal Court had no jurisdiction to make the decree appealed from. The former decree determined the manner in which dower should be assigned; and the parties having waived their right to appeal from it, it became final on its entry. Gen. Laws E. I. cap. 264, § 23. The revocation of its action by a probate court, under Gen. Laws E. I. cap. 209, § 11, is to be made before the time for taking an appeal has expired.
