Bennett Highfill was convicted on the 4th day of June, 1921, in the district court of Harper county, Olda., of the crime of robbery in the first degree, and sentenced to serve a term of 10 years’ imprisonment in the state penitentiary. From the judgment rendered against him, defendant appealed to this court by filing herein on December 3, 1921, petition in error with case-made attached.
