Appeal and Error — Affirmance in Absence of Briefs or Argument. Where an appeal is perfected from a judgment of conviction and no briefs are filed or argument presented, this court will make an examination of the record proper and, if no error is apparent, will affirm the judgment.

Edwin Dabney, Atty. Gen., and Smith C. Matson, Asst. Atty. Gen., for the State.

DOYLE, P.J.

From the judgment an appeal was perfected, but no brief has been filed and no appearance made in behalf of plaintiff in error in this court.

In cases of this kind we do not consider it the duty of this court to go into a careful examination of the evidence to determine whether or not the trial court erred in the admission or rejection of testimony. We have carefully examined the record, and the information, verdict, and judgment all appear to be regular, and we have discovered no error which will warrant a reversal of the judgment. The judgment is therefore affirmed.

EDWARDS and DAVENPORT, JJ., concur.
