   PER CDRIAM.

The state has filed a motion to dismiss this appeal for the reason that this court has no jurisdiction thereof, in that the judgment from which the appeal was prosecuted was rendered on the 19th day of July 1909, and the petition in error herein was not filed in this court until the 27th day of September, 1909. To this motion no response has been filed.

Section 6948 of Snyder’s Compiled Laws of Oklahoma, which section became an effective law on June 11, 1909, provides as 'follows:

“In misdemeanor cases the appeal must be taken within sixty-days after the judgment is rendered: Provided, however, that the trial court or judge may, for good cause shown, extend the time in which such appeal may be taken not exceeding sixty days.”

This was a conviction for a misdemeanor. The record shows that the judgment from which this appeal purports to have been taken was rendered against plaintiff in error on the 19th day of July, 1909. The record shows no order of the trial court or judge extending the time in which the appeal might be taken; and under the statute above quoted the time within which plaintiff in error could prosecute his appeal to this court expired on and with the 17th day of September, 1909. The case-made was not settled and signed until the 2'5th day of September, 1909, and was not filed in this court until the 27th day of September. Where the appeal is not perfected within 60 days after the rendition of judgment, .the record must show a proper order made by the trial court or judge before the expiration of the first. 60 days extending the time within which the appeal may be taken, else the appeal must be dismissed. The motion to dismiss is therefore well taken.

It is therefore ordered that the purported appeal herein be and the same is. hereby dismissed,.and a mandate is ordered issued to the county court of Okfuskee county, directing said court to enforce its judgment and sentence against plaintiff in error.
