    L. G. LEWIS v. STATE.
    No. A-7602.
    Opinion Filed June 21, 1930.
    (289 Pac. 800.)
    Billingsley & Stanley, for plaintiff in error.
    
      J. Berry King, Atty. Gen., and Smith 0. Matson, Asst. Atty Gen., for the State.
   EDWARDS, P. J.

The plaintiff in error, hereinafter called defendant, was convicted in the district court of Seminole county of manslaughter in the first degree and was sentenced to serve a term of four years in the state penitentiary. The state has filed a motion to dismiss, from which it appears that defendant, after his conviction, was at large upon a supersedeas bond; that he has left the state of Oklahoma, is a fugitive; his whereabouts are unknown.

It is settled by many decisions of this court that where a defendant has been convicted and perfects an appeal to this court, this court will not consider his appeal unless he is where he can be made to respond to any judgment or order which may be rendered in the case. Where a defendant becomes a fugitive from justice pending the determination of his appeal, this court upon proper motion will dismiss the same.

The case is dismissed.

DAVENPORT and CHAPPELL, JJ., concur.
