    1. Appeal and Eksor — Motion for New Trial — Dismissal of Writ.

delivered the opinion of the court.

The plaintiffs in error ivere plaintiffs in the court below. On December 1, 1924, an order was entered dissolving a temporary injunction which the plaintiffs caused to he issued on their complaint on October 27, 1924. A stipulation was filed to vacate the trial order April 22, 1925. No further proceedings were had in the case until January 11, 1927, when defendant moved to dismiss the case, under a rule of the district court, authorizing such action where one year had elapsed without progress or order entered in the canse, and also prayed for costs and attorney’s fees expended in securing the dissolution of the injunction.

At the hearing of the motion the court received evidence as to the reasonableness of the attorney’s fee claimed by the defendant, and at the conclusion of the hearing entered judgment dismissing the action and for attorney’s fee. The plaintiffs come here by writ of error to review that judgment. The defense moves to dismiss the writ.

Rule 8 provides: “The party claiming error in the trial of any case must, unless otherwise ordered by the trial court, move that court for a new trial, and, without such order, only questions presented in such motion will be considered on review.” •

The plaintiffs’ assignments of error are: (1) Because the trial court erred in finding the issues in favor of the defendant; (2) because the findings of the trial court are against the law; (3) because the findings of the trial court are against the evidence; (4) because the trial court erred in entering judgment in favor of the defendant.

It is clear that the assignments of error relate only to the findings and judgment entered at the hearing of the motion. An issue of fact was raised and tried at that hearing. The judgment was predicated upon the findings of the court from the evidence received in open court, and the judicial notice properly taken by the court of its records and rules of practice. Error is assigned that the. findings are against the evidence, and they seek a new trial and re-examination of the issues of fact. In issues of fact, it is the immemorial practice to file motions for a new trial. Rule 8 must be considered as applicable to a case of this character.

The motion to dismiss the writ of error is granted.

Mr. Justice Denison, sitting for Mr. Chiee Justice Burke, Mr. Justice Sheaeor and Mr. Justice Campbell concur.
