1Opinion of the CourtMcCLELLAN, J.

The appeal to this court is attempted to be taken by the municipality of Bessemer. So far as we are advised that municipality is not clothed by statute with the right of appeal to this court from judgments in favor of defendants charged with violations of its ordinances. This appeal is therefore dismissed. — Town of Brighton v. Miles, 153 Ala. 673, 45 South. 160.

Appeal dismissed.
