ART. 47] APPLICATION OF THIS ARTICLE. 1231

No appeal lies from the refusal of the court to grant a rule on the
insolvent trustee requiring him to show cause why his appointment should
not be revoked. (This case was decided prior to the adoption of section 31,
and the opinion does not show the ground of the decision). Chase v. Glenn,
1 H. & G. 161.

Generally.

An appeal not taken within thirty days will be dismissed. Spark's Appeal,
18 Md. 418.

While the appeal must be taken within thirty days, the bond may be filed
thereafter. Willis v. Wright, 22 Md. 378.

For a case involving the question of whether the record was transmitted
in time, and of whose fault the delay was, see Glenn v. Chesapeake Bank, 3
Md. 478.

This section held to have no application, the appeal being from a court of
equity. Cross v. Hecker, 75 Md. 575.

Formerly no appeal lay from the action of the insolvent court. Carter v.
Dennlson, 7 Gill, 170; Williams v. Williams, 5 Gill, 89.

For a case apparently no longer applicable to this section by reason of
changes in the law, see Baylles v. Ellicott, 9 Gill, 455.

See art. 5, sections 7 and 8.
