Tolar v. State

HAWKINS, Judge.

Conviction is for the manufacture of intoxicating liquor with punishment of one year in the penitentiary.

Appellant seeks enlargement from custody pending appeal upon a bond purported to have been executed in conformity to Article 904 or our C. C. P. The bond is approved by the sheriff only. It fails to also have the approval of the trial judge. In this respect it is defective, and no jurisdiction was conferred upon this court by-reason thereof. See Article 904 C. C. P., Chumley v. State, 83 Texas Crim. Rep., 54, 201 S. W., 176; King v. State, 83 Texas Crim. Rep., 304, 203 S.…
