C.E. Lane, Assistant Attorney General, for the State.
Complaint was filed in the Recorder's Court of the city of Paris, and appellant was there convicted of violating a city ordinance. He appealed to the County Court, and was again tried and convicted, and his punishment assessed at a fine of $20. Under the statutes of this State no appeal lies under such circumstances, and the appeal is therefore dismissed from the docket.
Dismissed.
Davidson, Judge, absent at consultation.
