Thornton v. Slack

PER CURIAM This action originated with claims against Jerome Ward and defendant. Ward’s motion for summary judgment was granted and, on July 12, 1984, a judgment was entered dismissing the complaint as to him and awarding him costs and disbursements. Later, defendant’s motion for summary judgment was granted and, on February 19, 1985, a judgment was entered in his favor and awarding him costs and disbursements. A notice of appeal was filed on March 15, 1985, at which time the failure to serve the notice on all parties who had appeared in an action, ORS 19.023(2)(a),1 was jurisdictional, former ORS 19.033(2),2 requiring a dismissal of the appeal.
