The opinion states the case.

1Opinion of the Court

DAVIDSON, Presiding Judge.

The recognizance is deficient in that it fails to state the amount of the punishment or its character. This omission from the recognizance renders it fatally defective, and requires a dismissal of the appeal. The appeal is dismissed.

Dismissed.
