   PRENDERGAST, Presiding Judge.

This cause originated and was tried in the Corporation Court of the City of San Antonio. It was appealed therefrom to the County Court, where a trial de novo occurred. The fine assessed was $100 even. This court, therefore, has no jurisdiction of this appeal, and the Assistant Attorney General’s motion to dismiss it is, therefore, granted. (Grigsby v. State, 79 Texas Crim. Rep., 84, 183 S. W. Rep., 143.)

The appeal is dismissed.
