“Whether the nature of the statements requires reversal cannot be determined, as none of the three statements is abstracted and their admission may have been harmless. At least we are not willing to presume that the statements are prejudicial when their content is not divulged and we have no way of knowing whether they are incriminating. Rule 9(d) of the Rules of the Supreme Court provides that appellant’s abstract should include “such material parts of the pleadings, proceedings, facts, documents, and other matters in the record as are necessary to an understanding of all questions presented to this court for decision.” While the rule uses the word “only”, that cannot excuse the total omission of exhibits or other material, the substance of which is essential to a determination of whether appellant’s argument has merit, and warrants a reversal of the judgment.”
