Joseph P. Bradley, Credit Company v. Arkansas Cent Railway Company…
“ An appeal cannot be said to be 'taken,' any more than a writ of error can be said to be 'brought,' until it is in some way presented to the court which made the decree appealed from, thereby putting an end to its jurisdiction over the cause, and making it its duty to send it to the appellate court. ”

“ Section 1012 of the Revised Statutes declares that 'appeals from the circuit courts, and district courts acting as circuit courts, and from district courts in prize causes, shall be subject to the same rules, regulations, and restrictions as are or may be prescribed in law in cases of error.' This provision applies to the time within which appeals may be brought, as well as to other regulations concerning them. ”
