WOODLEY, Judge,
dissenting.
The lost or misplaced exhibits are sets of papers supporting the demand for extradition which, under Art. 1008a, V.A.C.C.P., are required to be in duplicate.
Appellants have excused their failure to file statement of facts within 90 days after notice of appeal, but no reason appears why the statement of facts could not be prepared using copies of the duplicate papers, if the exhibits have not been located.
No reason appears why the court should be required to conduct another hearing. I would affirm the judgment for want of a statement of facts, without prejudice to the right of appellants, on motion for rehearing, to file the statement of facts without unnecessary delay.
