        "text": "Mr. PRESIDING JUSTICE BURKE\ndelivered the opinion of the court:\nA file containing papers purporting to be the \u201cshort record\u201d of an appeal from a \u201cjudgment order * * * entered on the 21st day of November 1968, and from the order entered on the 8th day of May, 1969, denying Defendant\u2019s motion to vacate the judgment * * * (sic)\u201d was filed with the clerk of this Court on July 29, 1969. Subsequent thereto, papers purporting to be appellant\u2019s excerpts from record, brief and reply brief, and appellee\u2019s brief were filed.\nAlthough characterized by appellant as a \u201cshort record,\u201d the aforementioned file is actually intended as the \u201crecord\u201d on appeal, since the appellant\u2019s purported brief and reply brief request from this Court a complete reversal of the alleged judgment alluded to above on evidentiary grounds. The file consequently does not qualify as a \u201cshort record\u201d under Supreme Court Rule 328, and therefore the attempted authentication of the file by affidavit of the appellant, attorney pro se, is a nullity. Rather, the file should have been certified by the clerk of the trial court, as required by Supreme Court Rule 324, relating to the certification of the record on appeal. (See Second Mercantile Financial Corp. v. Demierre, (Ill.App.2d), 272 N.E.2d 695; Hiser v. Baker, 115 Ill.App. 12.) It should be further noted that neither the alleged judgment appealed from, nor a copy thereof, is contained in the file on appeal. See Supreme Court Rule 321; Harris v. Annunzio, 411 Ill. 124.\nBecause the \"record\u201d filed with the clerk of this Court was not properly certified by the clerk of the trial court, the appeal is dismissed.\nAppeal dismissed.\nLYONS and GOLDBERG, JJ., concur.",
