On Appellant’s Motion to Reinstate Appeal

BELCHER, Commissioner.

By three affidavits filed in this Court the appellant seeks to show that he gave notice of appeal at the time his motion for new trial was overruled.

This is not a compliance with the mandatory provisions of Articles 827 and 841, V.A.C.C.P. which require that notice of appeal be timely given in open court and entered in the minutes; and a transcript in duplicate of the proceedings shall be made and filed by the clerk of the trial court and’ the original forwarded by said clerk to the clerk of this Court as provided in Art. 843, C.C.P. 5 Tex.Jur.2d 50S, Secs. 305-306; Reid v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 333 S.W.2d 139.

The only means by which a transcript may be completed is by supplemental transcript duly prepared and forwarded by the clerk of the trial court direct to the clerk of this Court. 5 Tex.Jur.2d 515, Sec. 316; Huskey v. State, 157 Tex.Cr.R. 247, 248 S.W.2d 131.

The motion to reinstate the appeal is denied.

Opinion approved by the Court.
