        "text": "Mr. Presiding Justice Baker\ndelivered the opinion of the court.\nSection 22 of the Municipal Court Act provides that \u201cAuthenticated copies of records of judgments, orders and decrees appealed from shall be filed in the office of the clerk of the Supreme Court, or of the Appellate Court, as the case may be, within forty days after the date of the order, judgment or decree appealed from, unless the Municipal Court, by an order entered within said forty days, shall have granted further time for the filing of the same.\u201d Laws of 1907, 236.\nAppellant did not, within forty days from the date of the judgment, obtain from the Municipal Court an order granting her further time for filing of the transcript in this court. If the transcript filed March 11th had been certified to be a complete copy of the record, and through mistake any part of the record was omitted from such transcript, then on suggestion of diminution this court would have the power to grant leave to supply the part of the record so omitted from the transcript. But the transcript filed March 11 is not certified to be a complete copy of the record, but only of \u201ccertain proceedings in the cause.\u201d\nWhether this court had the power, within forty days from the date of the judgment, to extend the time to complete the transcript, is a question not before us, for no application was made for such extension within that time.\nThe words \u201cAuthenticated copies of records of judgments, \u2019 \u2019 in said section 22, means copies which are certified by the clerk to be complete copies of the record. Gadwood v. Kerr, 181 Ill. 163. Appellant failed to file such copy within the time fixed by the act giving her the right to appeal, or to obtain further time, and her appeal must be dismissed.\nAppeal dismissed.",
