Felton, Justice.

Rule 16 (3) of this court (Code Ann. § 24-4516 (3), 221 Ga. 884) provides as follows: “The ‍‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‍brief of the appellant shall consist of two parts: ... (3) Part one shall contain a statement of each error enumerated. It shall also contain succinct and accurate statements ‍‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‍of the issues of law as made by the errors enumerated and shall refer to farts of the record and transcrift of the evidence relied ufon in suffort thereof. Any enumeration ‍‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‍of error not thus dealt with will be disregarded.” (Emphasis supplied).

The judgment of the trial court denying the writ of habeas corpus must be affirmed since the appellant‘s brief failed ‍‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‍to contain references to the record showing the errors specified or the references necessary for a consideration thereof. Hicks v. Maple Valley Corp., 223 Ga. 577 (156 SE2d 904); Wallis v. Maddox, 223 Ga. ‍‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‍626 (157 SE2d 456); Estes v. Perkins, 225 Ga. 268 (2) (167 SE2d 588).

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concur.
