ARMSTRONG v. STATE.
    (No. 5914.)
    (Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
    Oct. 27, 1920.)
    Appeal from District Court, Camp County; J. A. Ward, Judge.
    Winfrey Armstrong was convicted of unlawful selling of intoxicating liquors, and he appeals.
    Affirmed.
    Alvin M. Owsley, Asst. Atty. Gen., for the State.
   LATTIMORE, J.

Appellant was convicted in the district court of Camp county of unlawfully selling spirituous, vinous, and malt liquors, and his punishment fixed at confinement in the penitentiary for a jjeriod of one year.

An examination of the record discloses that appellant pleaded guilty in due and ancient form, after being admonished by the court of the consequences of said pleading. Thereafter he filed a motion for a new trial, said motion stating two grounds: (1) Because the verdict was contrary to the law in the case; and (2) because the verdict of the jury was contrary to the evidence in the case. This motion was overruled, and the appellant gave notice of appeal, and brings this case before this court without statement of facts, bills of exception, or brief.

Finding nothing in the record to justify a reversal of the case, the judgment of the trial court is in all things affirmed.
