The opinion states the case.

1Opinion of the Court

BEAUCHAMP, Judge.

The conviction is for aggravated assault; penalty assessed at a fine of $50.00 and confinement in the county jail for one year.

The statement of facts accompanying the record fails to bear the approval of the judge who tried the case. The rule is well settled that the statement of facts must be approved by the trial judge in order to be considered by the appellate court. See Art. 760, subd. 2, C. C. P., Arts. 2239 and 2243, R. S., 1925; Tex. Jur. Vol. 4, p. 419, Sec. 287; also Gunn v. State, 114 S. W. (2d) 903, and cases cited.

No complaints of the rulings of the trial court…
