This is an appeal from the circuit court of McDonald county. An inspection of the record discloses that no sentence was pronounced or judgment rendered by the circuit court upon the verdict of the jury, notwithstanding a motion for new trial as well
Attention on the part of the circuit and criminal courts and prosecuting attorneys to the manner of making up their records as required by section 1594, Revised Statutes 1899, will obviate the sending of transcripts to this court in which no final judgments have been rendered. Appeals to this court in cases of this character only lie from final judgments. The submission of this appeal is set aside and the cause remanded to the circuit court with directions to cause the appellant to be brought before it and to pronounce sentence and enter up judgment against defendant on the verdict as required by law.
