OPINION

STEPHENSON, Justice.

Mr. Valdez (defendant) appealed from a judgment and sentence following conviction of assault with intent to commit a violent felony, § 40A-3-3, N.M.S.A., 1953, and false imprisonment, § 40A-4-3, N.M. S.A., 1953.

The Court of Appeals affirmed and we granted certiorari. While affirming the result reached by the Court of Appeals, we differ with its reasoning in respect to the motion for a change of venue. Although the record is by no means clear, it seems that the State did not file its motion for change of venue within the time prescribed by § 21-5-3(B), N.M.S.A., 1953.
