Opinion

Almand, Presiding Justice.

The appellant in this case was convicted of robbery by intimidation, which under Code Ann. *617 § 26-2503 (Ga. L. 1957, pp. 261, 263) is not a capital felony, and there is no other question raised in the case over which this court has exclusive jurisdiction under Art. VI, Sec. II, Par. IV of the Georgia Constitution (Code Ann. § 2-3704). This court has no jurisdiction to review this case. Ward v. State, 199 Ga. 722 (35 SE2d 150); Meriwether v. State, 189 Ga. 746 (8 SE2d 72).
