Head Matter:
MEADOR v. STATE.
(No. 5094.)
(Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
June 26, 1918.)
Criminal Law <§=>1092 (6) — Appeal — Bills on? Exception — Statement of Facts — Time of Filing.
Bills of exceptions and statement of facts filed after adjournment, the record containing no order allowing it, cannot be considered.
Appeal from Jack County Court; Thomas F. Horton, Judge.
Lester Meador was convicted of carrying a pistol, and appeals.
Affirmed.
Stark & Stark, of Jacksboro, for appellant. E. B. Hendricks, Asst. Att£. Gen., for the State.

Opinion:
DAVIDSON, P. J.
Appellant was fined $100 by the verdict of the jury for unlawfully carrying a pistol.
An inspection of the record will show that the suggestion of the Assistant Attorney General is sustained by the record that the statement of facts and bills of exception were not filed within the time prescribed by law, and therefore cannot be considered. The court adjourned on the 30th of March. Appellant's bills of exception and statement of facts were not filed until the 29th of April, about 30 days after adjournment. In this attitude of the record neither the statement of facts nor the bills of exception can be considered. There is no order in the record allowing 20 days after adjournment of court in which to file these documents. With the statement of facts and bills of exception in this condition it leaves no question for revision.
The judgment must therefore be affirmed, which is accordingly so ordered.
