Lairy, J.

The brief filed by appellant on this appeal does not present ‍‌‌‌‌​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‍any question for decision by this court. It would serve no useful purpose to point out in detail the defects in the brief.. ‍‌‌‌‌​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‍The sufficiency of appellant’s brief to present any question for decision was promptly challenged by appellee in • a formal motion wherein the defects ‍‌‌‌‌​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‍were specifically pointed out; but no steps have been taken to cure the defects by amending the brief so as to conform to ‍‌‌‌‌​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‍the rules of court.

As the brief presents no question for decision, there can be no occasion for an oral argument. The petition of ‍‌‌‌‌​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‍appellant for oral argument is therefore denied, and the judgment is affirmed.
