Description
SHACKLEFORD, C. J. -- Pleas Lindsey seeks relief here from a conviction of the crime of aggravated assault. Seven errors were assigned, of which the fifth is expressly abandoned and the seventh is not argued, hence must be treated as abandoned. The second, third and fourth assignments may also be said not to be argued. In effect, the defendant simply repeats them in his brief and submits that the respective rulings upon which they are based, were and are erroneous. We have repeatedly held that where the brief for the plaintiff in error contains simply a bare statement that a ruling of the trial court is erroneous, no reasons being given, no principles of law stated and no authorities cited, an assignment of error based upon such ruling will be treated as abandoned for failure to argue the same, unless the error complained of is so glaring or patent that no argument is needed to demonstrate it. See McCall v. State, 55 Fla. 108, 46 South. Rep. 321, wherein prior decisions of this court will be found cited; Atlantic Coast Line R.R. Co. v. Dees, 56 South. Rep. 120. We have examined these assignments sufficiently to see that no glaring error appears. In fact, such assignments would seem to be without merit.
