Opinion of the Court

MERRITT, J.

The defendant was indicted and convicted in the lower court, and sentenced to imprisonment in the state penitentiary for a term of three years.

[1] There is no bill of exceptions in this case, and more than three months has expired since the sentence was announced. The testimony is copied into the record, but not in the form of- a bill "of exception, and, of course, cannot be considered as a bill of exceptions. The in'dictment and judgment appear to be regular, and there is no error in the record.

[2] Several written charges, which were refused to appellant, are incorporated into-the record; but, in the absence of a bill of exceptions, they are not presented in such a way as to authorize the court to review them. Payne v. State, 10 Ala. App. 85, 65 South. 262.

The case will be affirmed.

Affirmed.
