ON MOTION FOR REHEARING.
WOODLEY, Judge.
We are unable to agree with appellant’s contention that his multifarious bill of exception should be considered as presented.
Nor can we agree that appellant may now amend such bill of exception by waiver of a part thereof and thereby present a bill of exception relating to a single transaction, and have same considered by this court.
It may be observed that the trial court in his charge instructed the jury in effect that unless appellant was under arrest when his car was searched, the evidence obtained by such search was inadmissible, and appellant should be acquitted. Appellant did not except to such charge.
In the absence of a statement of facts, we must assume that the evidence raised such issue, and that the jury found that appellant was under arrest at the time the pistol was discovered.
Appellant’s motion for rehearing is overruled.
Opinion approved by the court.
