OPINION
These four cases are consolidated for the purpose of appeal. Speeding is the offense in each case; the punishment is a fine of $20 for each offense.
Appellant's convictions resulted from trials de novo in the County Criminal Court at Law No. 1 of Harris County, Texas, after appeals from convictions in the Corporation Court of the City of Houston.
Article 4.03, Vernon's Ann.C.C.P. reads as follows:
Since these are appeals from causes originating in the Corporation Court and the fine assessed at the trial de novo in each case does not exceed $100, this Court is without authority to enter any order other than to dismiss the appeals. Taylor v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 396 S.W.2d 893; Butler v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 363 S.W.2d 469; Hoover v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 355 S.W.2d 527; Trull v. State, 169 Tex.Cr.R. 357, 334 S.W.2d 180.
The appeal in each case is dismissed.
