    Appeal from Nolan County Court; Jno. H. Cochran, Jr., Judge.
    Roy Campbell was convicted of violating :a city ordinance, and he appeals.
    Appeal dismissed.
    A. W. Christian, Co. Atty., of Sweetwater, and C. E. Lane, Asst. Atty. Gen., for the State.
   HARPER, J.

Appellant was prosecuted in the recorder’s court, of the city of Sweet-water for violating an ordinance of that city. Upon conviction, he appealed to the county court of Nolan county, and when tried he was again convicted and his punishment assessed at a fine in the sum of $5, and he attempts to perfect an appeal to this court.

In the case of Richardson v. State, 3 Tex. App. 69, it was held that this court had no jurisdiction of an appeal in that character of case; the court saying: “The judgment of the county court was a finality, and no appeal could be taken to tMs court from it. The law is: ‘In all appeals from justices’, mayors’, or recorders’ courts there shall be a trial de novo in the county court, and, when the judgment rendered, or fine imposed, or the amount in controversy shall not exceed one hundred dollars, exclusive of interest and costs, the judgment shall be final.’ Gen. Laws 15th Leg. p. 18, § 3, and page 172, § 3; Const, art. 5, § 16; Ex parte Dennis Call, 2 Tex. App. 497.” In section 1228 of White’s Ann. C. O. P. will be found a long list of authorities so holding, and this is not only the unvarying rule since these decisions of this court, but the statutes so provide.

Appeal dismissed.
