G. 0. Crisp, of Kaufman, for appellant.
A. A. Dawson, State’s Atty., of Canton, for the State.

Opinion:
LATTIMORE, J.
Conviction for possessing intoxicating liquor ; punishment, one year in the penitentiary.
Our attention is drawn to the fact that the bail bond herein was approved only by the sheriff, and nowhere hears the approval of the trial court. The statute upon this is very plain. See article 818, C. CN P. The appeal will be dismissed, but the appellant may reinstate same by filing with the clerk of this court, within fifteen days from the entering of this order of dismissal, a new appeal bond conditioned and approved as directed by law.
The appeal is dismissed.
On Motion to Reinstate.
CHRISTIAN, J.
The appeal was dismissed at a former day of the term because of an insufficient appeal bond. A sufficient bond, properly approved, having been timely filed, the appeal is reinstated, and the case will stand for later consideration on its merits.
PER CURIAM.
The foregoing opinion of the Commission of Appeals has been examined' by the Judges of the Court of Criminal Appeals and approved by the court.
