Allen v. State
162 S.W. 868
Tex. Crim. App.
1913
Check Treatment

The appellant appeals from a conviction of murder in the second degree, with a penalty of twenty-five years fixed as his punishment.

The case was tried in the lower court and the proceedings had before Judge Barry Miller while he was judge of that court. There is in the record what purports to be a statement of facts and bills of exception, approved long afterwards by Judge Crawford, his successor, instead of by him. This case is in precisely the same condition as the case of Will Porter v. State, from Dallas County, recently decided but not yet reported. Upon motion of the Assistant Attorney-General and on authority of that case and Richardson v. State, 71 Tex.Crim. Rep., 158 S.W. Rep., 517, and the statute, the said purported statement of facts *Page 278 and bills of exception herein are struck out and can not be considered. Without them, there is no question raised which can be reviewed.

The judgment is affirmed.

Affirmed.

[Rehearing denied January 14, 1914. — Reporter.]
