Description
From a judgment of the county court in condemnation proceedings, the Department of Highways appealed to the circuit court. In accordance with the provisions of KRS 177.087, the department filed a certified copy of the county court judgment, a statement of the parties to the appeal, and the exceptions taken by the department to the award of the commissioners. The entire original record in the county court also was filed. Thereafter, and within the 30-day period prescribed by the statute, the landowners filed what was designated as a "cross appeal," which embraced a statement of the parties and the exceptions taken by the landowners; however, the landowners did not file a certified copy of the county court judgment. The department moved to dismiss the cross appeal, on the ground that it was defective because of the failure to file a certified copy of the judgment. This motion was overruled and the case went to trial in the circuit court, resulting in a verdict and judgment in excess of that entered in the county court.
