1Opinion of the CourtMaltbie, C. J.

No appearance was entered for the defendant in this divorce action, and on December 22, 1948, judgment was rendered for the plaintiff. Subsequently, on the motion of the defendant, the judgment was opened, on the ground that she had consulted counsel but by accident or inadvertence no appearance for her was entered, and that counsel believed she had a good defense. From the order opening the judgment the plaintiff has filed an appeal. The defendant moves to erase it upon the ground that the order was not such a final judgment as can be made the basis of an appeal.
