Ivy v. State , 124 Tex. Crim. 190 ( 1933 )

CALHOUN, Judge.

This is an appeal from a final judgment upon forfeiture of a bail bond.

The record fails to show that any briefs were filed by appellants in the trial court. We fail to find a waiver by the state of such filing. The motion is made by the state’s attorney before this court to dismiss the appeal because briefs in the case were not filed in the court below. It is the uniform holding of.' this court in cases such as this briefs must be filed in the trial court and in this court in compliance with the law and rules governing civil cases, or a waiver of such filing must appear of record. Article 2283, Revised Civil Statutes, 1925; article 866, C. C. P.; Lewis et al. v. State, 109 Texas Crim. Rep., 661, 7 S. W. (2d) 74; Bratton et al. v. State, 109 Texas Crim. Rep., 329,. 4 S. W. (2d) 562; Rees et al. v. State (Tex. Crim. App.), 13 S. W. (2d) 858; Johns et al. v. State, 115 Texas Crim. Rep., 335, 29 S. W. (2d) 757; Thodberg et al v. State, 81 Texas Crim. Rep., 225, 194 S. W., 1108; Morton et al. v. State, 59 S. W. (2d) 830.

The motion to dismiss is well taken. The appeal will be dismissed, and it is accordingly so ordered.

Dismissed.
