Hopkins v. State

DAVIDSON, Judge.

Aggravated assault is the offense; the punishment, a fine of $100.00 and six months’ confinement in jail.

Notice of appeal to this court appears in this record only as a docket entry. This is insufficient. Art. 827, C. C. P. requires that notice of appeal be given in open court and entered of record. The term “entered of record” means entered in the minutes of the court. Attesting authorities will be found collated under Note 4, Art. 827, Vernon’s C. C. P.

Without a proper notice of appeal, this court has no jurisdiction of the appeal.

The appeal is dismissed.
