Dempsey v. State
Dempsey v. State
Opinion of the Court
Conviction for robbery; punishment, ten years in the penitentiary.
We find in the record two bills of exception. Both of same are quite lengthy, and are made up entirely of questions and answers. This is contrary to the provisions of art. 760 of our C. C. P., and in cases too numerous to need citation we have held that we can not consider bills of exception when presented here in this form. In some cases where the court certifies it is necessary, in order that the propositions involved may be understood and made clear, that there be questions and answers in the bill, — we have considered same, but each of the bills of exception appearing in this record are qualified by the trial court who states that it was not necessary to put the questions and answers in these bills of exception in order to make them clear. Such being the case, these bills will not be considered.
No error appearing, the judgment will be affirmed.
Affirmed.
Hawkins, J., absent.
