    SIMPSON v. STATE.
    (No. 11831.)
    Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
    Oct. 31, 1928.
    Laverne Somerville, of Wichita Falls, for appellant.
    A. A. Dawson, State’s Atty., of Austin, for the State.
   HAWKINS, J.

Appellant was charged by indictment with theft of property over the value of $50. He was convicted of misdemeanor theft, and his punishment assessed at confinement in the county jail for 60 days.

His motion for new trial was overruled on December 31st, and he was granted 90 days from that date in which to file bills of exception and statement of facts. This time expired March 30th. On that date the trial judge made an order in which he attempted to grant an additional 10 days. This- order was without authority of law and ineffectual. The court had no power to extend the time beyond the 90 days. Article 760, subd. 5, C. C. P.; Retza v. State, 95 Tex. Cr. R. 491, 255 5. W. 423; Naranjo v. State, 96 Tex. Cr. R. 649, 259 S. W. 938.

The only bill of exception in the record attempts to bring forward for review all the matters set up as grounds of the motion for new trial. Even if it could be considered, it is insufficient. Holt v. State, 98 Tex. Cr. R. 248, 265 S. W. 394; Ivory v. State, 101 Tex. Cr. R. 123, 274 S. W. 565; Cuellar v. State (Tex. Cr. App.) 7 S.W.(2d) 565. But the bill cannot be considered. While it bears file mark of date March 30th, it also shows not to have been approved by the judge until March 31st, which was one day too late. It was in no condition to become a part of the record until approved, and should not have been filed until after approval. If it was filed back, such filing gave it no validity. ‘ Gowan v. State, 73 Tex. Cr. R. 222, 164 S. W. 6; Hinton v. State, 95 Tex. Cr. R. 3, 252 S. W. 525; Chisholm v. State, 108 Tex. Cr. R. 401, 1 S.W.(2d) 613, and authorities therein ’cited.

What has been said of the bill of exception applies equally to the statement of facts. It bears the file mark of the clerk of the trial court of date March 30th, but was not approved by the trial judge until April 9th. Upon the face of the record the motion of our state’s attorney that the statement of facts and bills of exception be stricken from the record must be sustained.

The judgment is affirmed.
