1Opinion of the CourtBuck, J.
At the threshold of the consideration of this case we are met with the motion of defendant in error to. dismiss the appeal of plaintiffs in error because it was not filed in this court within 12 months from the rendition of the judgment in the trial court, and he cites in support of his motion article 2086, Revised 'Civil Statutes 1911, which reads as follows:
“The writ of error may, in eases where the same is allowed, be sued out at any time within 12 months after the final judgment is rendered, and not thereafter,”
—and also the case of Cooper v. Yoakum, 91 Tex. 391, 43 S. W. 871.
