    Argued: March 26,1968
    Decided: May 21, 1968
    
      
      Present: Nash, P.J., Cox, Owen, J.J.
    Case tried to Lee, J.
    
    in the Fourth District Court of Bristol
    No. 23988.
   Owen, J.

This is an appeal from the denial of a petition to vacate judgment and supersede execution in a tort action tried in District Court as required under the provisions of G-. L. c. 231, §104.

The petition to vacate judgment was brought in the court in which the judgment was entered as required by G. L. c. 250, § 15 and was denied.

The law is well settled in Massachusetts that, since the petition to vacate judgment was filed in District Court by requirement of statute, the present appeal lies to the Superior Court. The Appellate Division has no jurisdiction of the appeal.
