        "text": "The County Judge of Kane Count)7, Illinois, heretofore in the year 1917 entered an order assessing an inheritance in the estate of Celeste C. Harding, deceased, and the claimant presents a claim of refund $540.21 inheritance tax erroneously paid. And prays this Court to examine and review the proceedings of the appraiser and order of the County Judge approving same and fixing the tax. The attorney for claimant contends that the error is a mistake of the Judge in construing the will and that it is not res adjudicada-, and that it is a mistake that can be Testified by the State Treasurer under the power given in the Statute of Illinois.\nThe County Judge had jurisdiction of the parties and the subject matter, and as such Judge entered an order assessing the said inheritance.\nAlthough the time has long since expired in which an appeal might have been prosecuted from such order to the County Court, none was ever prayed or taken to the County Court as required by statute in such case made and provided.\nSection 11 of the inheritance tax law provides that: \u201cAny person, including the Attorney General dissatisfied with the appraisement or assessment may appeal therefrom to the County Court of the proper county -within sixty days after the making and finding of such assessment order\u201d, etc.\nSo far as this Court is concerned the tax was legally assessed and continues to be of binding and legal force till such time as an appeal is prosecuted according to said statute and the order of the County Judge reversed or modified by County Court. This Court cannot review 'the order of the County Judge.\nThe statute referred to provides for the manner of reviewing the order of the County Judge, 2 C. C. p. 210, 213, also 2 C. C. 208. The case is therefore dismissed.",
