DICE, Commissioner.

This is an appeal from an order entered in a habeas corpus proceeding ‍‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌​‌​‍remanding appellant to custody for extradition to the State of Alaska.

A prior judgment remanding appellant to custody was reversed by this court because of the trial ‍‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌​‌​‍court’s failure to continue the cause, under Art. 2168a, Vernon’s Ann.Civ.St., upon affidavit being made by his counsel, who was a member of the legislature. Ex ‍‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌​‌​‍parte Browder, Tex.Cr.App., 373 S.W.2d 256.

*325The record before us in the instant appeal is without a statement of facts of the evidence adduced upon the hearing.

A motion ‍‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌​‌​‍to dismiss the appeal, signed by appellant’s counsel, has been filed in this court.

Such motion, not being signed and verified by appellant, is insufficient to authorize ‍‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌​‌​‍a dismissal of the appeal.

The judgment is therefore affirmed.

Opinion approved by the Court.
