The opinion
SCHOTT, Judge.
ON MOTION TO DISMISS
This matter is before us on a motion filed by plaintiff-appellee to dismiss on the ground that defendant-appellant failed to file a proper appeal bond in the time provided by law.
*153 Defendant-appellant took a suspensive appeal on September 22, 1972, and on February 28, 1973, plaintiff-appellee filed a rule to test the surety on the suspensive appeal bond.
