— In habeas corpus proceedings in the Circuit Court, it appears that Howard Carroll was convicted in the County Court for St. Lucie County, and on September 27, 1924, was sentenced to pay a fine of $500.00 and to six months imprisonment in the county jail. It does not appear that the sentence of fine and imprisonment was imposed because of Chapter 9266, Acts of 1923. See Porter v. State decided April 20, 1926.
An appeal to. the Circuit Court was filed, returnable December 15, 1924. On April 15, 1925, the appeal was dismissed upon motion, the ground being that the appeal had not been perfected…
