Autry v. State

Opinion of the Court

PRENDERGAST, Judge.

The appellant was convicted for unlawfully carrying a pistol and 1 fined $100.

Upon the motion of the State the appeal herein is dismissed because the recognizance is wholly insufficient in that it does not state that appellant was convicted of a misdemeanor, nor does it state that he was convicted of any offense defined by law, nor does it state the penalty assessed. The appeal is dismissed.

Dismissed.
