Opinion:
DAVIDSON, J.
Appellant was convicted of selling nonintoxieating liquors without a license.
Court adjourned on the 29th day of July; the statement of facts was filed on the 7th day of September. This was clearly beyond the time authorized by law, to wit, 20 days, in which to file evidence in the county court. There are quite a number of bills' of exception. These were also filed on the 7th of September, and cannot be considered.
Without these matters before the court, there is nothing to revise, and the judgment is affirmed.
