Opinion:
HAWKINS, X
Conviction is for aggravated assault, punishment being a fine of $25.
The state's attorney, with this court, urges that the statement of facts was filed too late, and that the record fails to show when the bills of exception were filed, if ever, in the trial court. The state's position is correct.
The trial term of court adjourned on the 22d day of November; appellant's motion for new trial being overruled the same day. Article 760, C. C. P., suhd. 5, fixes the time for filing statement of facts and bills of exception under such circumstances at thirty days, unless there he an extension of time which the record fails to show. The thirty days expired on the 22d day of December. The statement of facts was filed on the 23d day of December, one day too late. See authorities collated under article 760, Vernon's Ann. Tex. C. C. P. vol. 3.
The transcript fails to show a filing of the hills of exception at any time. Of course, under such circumstances they cannot be considered. See Pendelton v. State (Tex. Cr. App.) 26 S.W.(2d) 240, and authorities there cited. But, even if filed in proper time, .they could not be appraised in the absence of the statement of facts.
The judgment is affirmed.
