Bruce v. Pope
Supreme Court of Iowa
Appeal from Oedar Rapids Superior Court. — C. B. Robbins, Judge. This cause was fully submitted to a justice of the peace on Thursday, July 24, 1913, and he entered judgment therein on Monday, July 28, 1913. The question we have is whether this entry was made so late as that the judgment is void.
1Opinion of the CourtSalinger, J.
time: excinding days: Sundays: judgment 01 juspeacef the I.

They all hold that, where the judgment is entered later than three days after submission, such judgment is void. The sole contention here is over whether the judg: *1162ment ivas entered later than three days aftey submission.
