1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
DALLY, Commissioner.
The convictions are for felony theft. The punishment for Ruby May Ratliff, *845five years imprisonment with the sentence probated and for Robert R. Ratliff, seven years imprisonment.
The appellants’ brief suggests no ground of error relating to the conviction of Ruby May Ratliff and the sole ground of error advanced by Robert R. Ratliff is that the trial court erred in overruling his amended motion for new trial “. . . based on the ground that the jury during their deliberations considered the defendant’s failure to testify as a circumstance against him.”
