Is i that n
Sunday although the thirtieth day
from that on which the motion for a ro
hearing niu overruled by tho court of
civil appeals cun not bo oxUudcd from
the computation buch Is thu general
rule although there are some conillcilng
decisions It wus adopted by this court
alter careful consideration In Bun vs
Lewis 11 T ui 7b nnd wo havo found no
case In this lourt which modules that de-
cision When tho llmo allowed for doing
an net Is very shoit It is usual to ux
clutlo Sunday Tho pilnclplo would stem
to bu that when but a few days aro al-
low In which to do the act It Is not
to be prcsuined the legislature Intended
further to abbreviate It In meet by in
eluding 11 day ordinarily observed as a
day o cessation ftxnn all oitllnaty busi-
ness Kor example when two tluyn ure
designated It Is not reasonable to hold that
It was tlio purpose lo Include a Sunday
when the practical effect of tho ruling
would bo to reduce tho time to one day
only But whore weoks aro included In
the tlmo allowed the reason does not
apply
2 A illstirctlon Is made between Judicial
act and thoso of a ministerial churauer
and It seems to be genet ally held that In
tho ubsence of a statute ministerial acts
performed on Sunday aro valid Tho filing
or an application for a writ of error tn
tho court of civil uppeuls Is the continu-
ation of a suit and hot Its commencement
We co lclude therefore that a 1 appllca
tloi for a writ of errot may be lawfully
lied on a Sunday but do not hold that
the clerl Is bound to do nn official act
of that chaiaoter on that day
It follows from what we havo Bald that
w e think the file mark upon the paper on
Mondiv ni3 too late and It remains
theiefore to consider tho effect of th
ilerlt s lndinemcnt ns to Its teieliit on
hunduv Tno flist Inference from the In

In thu enso it Is llled When tho Indono
