At the trial of defendant and appellant, the same testimony by the same witnesses was introduced, and it was further established that appellant had lived with Lora M. Hewitt as man and wife for about ten months preceding the shooting.
Appellant urges as grounds of appeal that the evidence was insufficient to warrant a conviction and that there was an entire lack of corroborating proof. It is sufficient to state that the claims are without merit.
Finally, it is urged by appellant that judgment should be reversed on account of the refusal by the trial court- to give certain instructions requested by appellant. In this connection, appellant has not complied with one of the rules adopted by the judicial council for the District Courts of Appeal, namely rule VIII, which requires the printing in the opening brief, in full, “or the substance thereof clearly stated, with citation to the line and page of the transcript where such instructions may be found”, of instructions which were given as well as refused, bearing upon the subjects covered by the refused instructions.
The judgment and the order denying a new trial are affirmed.
Houser, P. J., and York, J., concurred.
