The Assistant Attorney-General has filed a motion to dismiss the appeal because of a defective recognizance. This motion will have to be sustained. The recognizance fails to state what was the punishment assessed against the appellant in the court below, the language being as follows: "Conditioned, that the said Melvin Doky, who has been convicted in this case of a misdemeanor and his punishment assessed at _____ as more fully appears by the judgment of conviction duly entered in this cause." The recognizance must state the punishment assessed in the court below.
The recognizance being defective the case is, therefore, hereby dismissed.
Dismissed.
