Henley, J.

¶1The only questions presented by this appeal arise out of the ruling of the trial court in overruling ap*81pellant’s motion for a new trial. All of sucli questions as are here presented, under the assignment of error that the court erred in overruling appellant’s motion for a new trial, require that the evidence adduced upon the trial be in the record. Appellant has attempted to bring the evidence into the record under section 6 of an act of the legislature of 181)9. Acts 1899, p. 384. The Supreme Court has, since this appeal was taken, held section 6 of said act to be invalid and inoperative. See Adams v. State, 156 Ind. 596.

¶2In the case at bar, appellant did not attempt to bring the evidence into the record by bill of exceptions,' and if the reporter’s transcript was in form a bill of exceptions, still the record affirmatively shows that the transcript of the evidence which was filed by the reporter as such transcript was not filed in'’ the clerk’s office after its signature by the judge of the trial court.

¶3The evidence not being in the record, no question is presented. Judgment affirmed.
