Head Matter:
BRASUELL v. STATE.
No. 25834.
Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
May 21, 1952.
No attorney for appellant.
George P. Blackburn, State’s Atty., of Austin, for the State.

Opinion:
DAVIDSON, Commissioner.
This purports to be an appeal from a conviction for false imprisonment, with punishment assessed at 'sixty days' confinement in jail.
The notice of appeal in this case appears only as a notation upon the motion for a new trial. It does not appear as a judgment entered in the minutes of the court. Such is necessary to constitute a valid notice of appeal. Art. 827, Vernon's C.C.P., and authorities there cited.
A valid notice of appeal is necessary to the jurisdiction of this court.
The appeal is dismissed.
Opinion approved by the Court,
