MERRILL, Justice.
Petitioner has filed an original application in this court for leave to file a writ of error coram nobis in the Circuit Court of Jefferson County. The State has filed a motion to dismiss the petition on the ground that this court does not have jurisdiction in this cause. The motion must be granted.
Petitioner was convicted and sentenced to a term of years in the State Penitentiary. He attempted to perfect an appeal to this court but it was dismissed for failure to follow mandatory rules for effectively presenting the appeal. Bland v. State, 272 Ala. 215, 130 So.2d 385.
