MORRIS ROBINSON v. STATE.
No. A-7169.
Opinion Filed March 8, 1930.

(289 Pac. 785.)
Burns McCain, for plaintiff in error.
J. Berry King, Atty. Gen., for the State.

Opinion:
DAVENPORT, J.
The information in this case was filed in the district court of Tulsa county, August 24, 1927, charging the defendant with obtaining money under false pretense. Defendant was tried and convicted and sentenced to pay a fine of $1,200, from which judgment the defendant has appealed to this court.
The case-made, with petition in error, was filed in this court on September 10, 1928. Under the rules of this court where the appeal is not supported by brief, and no appearance is made for the plaintiff in error, it is assumed that the appeal has been abandoned or is without merit.
The record has been carefully examined, and we find the information sufficiently charges an offense of obtaining money under false pretense; that the evidence supported the charge. The instructions of the court were reasonably fair to the defendant. There are some minor errors appearing in the record committed by the trial court, but, in view of the fact that the appeal has not been followed up by the defendant they are not deemed sufficient to justify the court in reversing this case.
Finding no fundamental or prejudicial errors in the record sufficient to warrant a reversal, the judgment is affirmed.
