   Per Curiam:

The writ of error in this case is from the Criminal Court of Record of Duval county, and was issued on the 30th day of March, A. D. 1898, and made returnable to the 15th day of May, A. D. 1898, being issued on a day within the January term, 1898, of this court, and made returnable to a day within the same term, which was contrary to law, and the writ of error being therefore void, this court is without jurisdiction to hear or determine the same, and it is hereby dismissed.-
