HARRIS, Judge.

¶1This is an appeal from a conviction on an indictment for robbery and a sentence of ten years in the penitentiary. Appellant is not indigent.

¶2The Attorney General has filed a motion to strike the transcript of the evidence because not timely filed.

¶3The judgment of guilt was entered on February 10, 1976, and appellant gave notice of appeal on that date.

¶4Appellant filed a motion for a new trial on March 11, 1976, and this motion was continued from time to time and the same was overruled and denied on August 9, 1976.

¶5Appellant filed a second notice of appeal on September 17, 1976, which was nothing more than a written memorial of the notice of appeal which he gave at the time he was sentenced on February 10, 1976.

¶6The Court Reporter’s transcript of the evidence was filed in the office of the Circuit Clerk on November 15, 1976, which was 98 days from the date the motion for a new trial was denied. The filing on November 15, 1976, was too late.

¶7The State’s motion to strike the transcript is well taken. We do not have the discretion to ignore it. Therefore, the State’s motion is granted, the Court Reporter’s transcript of the evidence is stricken. Ferguson v. State, 55 Ala.App. 135, 313 So.2d 561.
