Lead Opinion

In this case appellant was convicted for violating the local option law in Montague County and his punishment fixed at confinement in the penitentiary for one year.

The Assistant Attorney General has made a motion to strike from the record the statement of facts and bills of exception of appellant for the reason that same are not filed in time. The record shows that the court adjourned on July 20, 1918, after entering an order granting to appellant sixty days from such adjournment in which to file statement of facts and bills of exception. Before the end of this sixty day period the court made an order further extending said time for filing, for an additional thirty days. The statement of facts and bills of exception were not filed until October 19, 1918, and this was clearly not within the ninety day period allowed by the court, and the motion of the State must be sustained.

An additional objection to the statement of facts is that same was not approved by the trial judge. The indictment and charge of the court, together with the remaining portions of the record show no error which we can consider, in the absence of the statement of facts and bills of exception.

The judgment of the lower court will be affirmed.

Affirmed.

Addendum

This case comes before the court upon motion for rehearing filed by the appellant in propria persona in which he complains that upon a former hearing he was without representation either in person or by attorney, and that the court erred in not acting upon the fundamental error apparent of record in this case.

The court fully considered all of the errors presented and as none are pointed out in this motion for rehearing we are unable to say wherein any error was committed in the former judgment of this court.

This court has no power to grant to appellant the relief prayed for, to-wit, by directing that the day of his sentence and the term of his imprisonment begin on the date of his conviction in the court below. *Page 30

There being no errors shown by the motion for rehearing the motion will be accordingly overruled.

Overruled.
