OPINION ON APPELLANT'S MOTION TO DISMISS
Per Curiam:
This is a capital case in which the death sentence has been stayed by this court during defendant's appeal to the *487 court. Appellant has now filed a motion to dismiss his appeal. In a similar situation, this court speaking through Mr. Chief Justice Harvey, said in State v. Miller, 165 Kan. 228, at 238, 194 P.2d 498:
We think that G.S. 1949, 62-2414, applies to all capital cases where the death sentence has been imposed and the trial court's judgment is still in force.
The motion to dismiss is denied upon the above authority.
