Doyle v. State

Opinion of the Court

MORROW, Presiding Judge.

The offense is the possession of equipment for the unlawful manufacture of intoxicating liquor, punishment fixed at confinement in the penitentiary for a period of three years.

The absence of the sentence which constitutes the final judgment from which an appeal may be taken precludes a consideration of the appeal on its merits. The final judgment is essential to confer jurisdiction upon this court. See Vernon’s Tex. Crim. Stat., Vol. 2, p. 870, and authorities cited; also Art. 767, C. C. P., 1925.

The appeal is dismissed. Dismissed.
