Opinion:
Wade, J.
1. Before this court can properly consider a judgment overruling a plea of former jeopardy, the judgment must be excepted to in a final bill of exceptions, or in exceptions pen'dente lite. A judgment of this character does not constitute a ground for a new trial, and should not he incorporated in a motion for a new trial. Collier v. State, 8 Ga. App. 371 (69 S. E. 29).
2. The evidence supports the verdict and no error appears in the trial on the merits. Judgment affirmed.
