Description
Per Curiam Anderson and another sued Casebolt to recover either the contract price or the fair market value of a boat house built by Anderson upon the property of Casebolt. The trial court rendered judgment for defendant Casebolt and the court of civil appeals affirmed. 484 S.W.2d 462. We conclude that the court of civil appeals was without jurisdiction to entertain the appeal because the cash deposit in lieu of a cost bond was not made within the thirty-day period required by Rule 356.1 The judgment in this case was first signed by the trial judge on August 18, 1971. For purposes of timing the appellate steps, the judgment is deemed rendered that day. Rule 306a. The trial judge then attempted to set that judgment aside and render the same judgment a second time on September 20, 1971. Plaintiffs filed an original motion for new trial on September 30 and an amended motion for new trial on October 20. The trial court entered an order on December 8 purporting to overrule the amended motion for new trial, and a cash deposit in lieu of a cost bond was made on December 30, 1971.
