Opinion

No. 36905.

April 22, 1964.

Appeal from the County Court, Terry County, R. A. Simms, J.

No attorney of record on appeal for appellant.

Leon B. Douglas, State's Atty., Austin, for the State.


Aggravated assault is the offense, with punishment assessed at sixty days in jail and a fine of $100.

The notice of appeal recites that the defendant gave notice of appeal to the County Court of Terry County, being the court in which he was convicted.

Such notice is not in compliance with the statute and is insufficient to confer jurisdiction upon this court. Ford v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 335 S.W.2d 606.

Further, the recognizance is not conditioned that the accused will abide the judgment of The Court of Criminal Appeals, as required by Art. 831, Vernon's Ann.C.C.P.

The state's motion to dismiss the appeal is granted and the appeal is dismissed.

Opinion approved by the court.
