Decision Date21 May 1908
Citation156 Ala. 699,46 So. 566
PartiesVICK v. STATE.
CourtAlabama Supreme Court

Appeal from Criminal Court, Jefferson County; D. A. Greene, Judge.

Oram Vick was charged with an offense, and he appeals. Dismissed.

B. M. Allen and Allen & Bell, for appellant.

Alexander M. Garber, Atty. Gen., for the State.

DENSON, J.

It is only from a judgment of conviction that an appeal is authorized under the statute. Cr. Code 1896, § 4313. The record here discloses no such judgment. Consequently the appeal will be dismissed on the authority of Mayers v. State, 147 Ala. 687, 40 So. 658, and the cases there cited.

Appeal dismissed.

TYSON, C.J., and HARALSON and SIMPSON, JJ., concur.
