MORRISON, Judge.
This record reflects that appellants (relators in the court below) seek to invoke the appellate jurisdiction of this court to review the action of the trial court in refusing to discharge them from custody under a judgment adjudging them to be juvenile delinquents and committing relators to the custody of the Texas Youth Development Council.
Article 5, Section 5, of the Constitution of this state, limits the appellate jurisdiction of this court to criminal cases. The judgments sought to be here nullified are of a class declared by the legislature as appealable to the civil courts and do not *467possess the requisites necessary to constitute a judgment in a criminal case. See Articles 766, .783 and 784, C. C. P.
The appellate jurisdiction of this court is not shown, and the purported appeal is dismissed.
