Appellants were indicted, arraigned, tried, and convicted of the crime of assault with intent to murder. Each of the defendants was sentenced to serve a term in the Louisiana State Penitentiary. From the verdict and sentence both appealed.

There is no bill of exception or assignment of error in the record; no error is patent on its face, and defendants have not filed a brief in the ease. State v. Mann, 163 La. 477, 112 So. 304; State v. Hamilton, 164 La. 717, 114 So. 605.

There are no jurisdictional questions involved.

The minutes show that counsel for defendants excepted to the overruling of a motion for a new trial," but no bill was reserved to the ruling. State ex rel. Markham v. Read, 52 La.
