JANE MATYASTIK,

APPELLANT

 
vs.
THE STATE OF TEXAS,

APPELLEE

 
FROM THE COUNTY COURT OF MILAM COUNTY
NO. 17,644, HONORABLE ROGER HASHEM, JUDGE PRESIDING

PER CURIAM

On appeal by trial de novo from justice court, appellant was convicted of allowing a child at least four years old but less than fifteen years old ride in the front seat of a car without being secured by a seat belt. Tex. Rev. Civ. Stat. Ann. art. 6701d, 107C (West Supp. 1993). The punishment is a $50 fine.

This Court has jurisdiction in this cause only if the sole issue is the constitutionality of section 107C. Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 4.03 (West Supp. 1993). Appellant's four points of error do not challenge the constitutionality of the statute, but instead assert various procedural complaints. Under the circumstances, this Court is without jurisdiction.

The appeal is dismissed.
