—Scope & extent—scope of review limited as compared to civil matters—In criminal matter, review only lies if there appears any error apparent on the face of record—the error must be so manifest which may not be allowed to remain in the filed—in review neither the merit of the case, nor the points, already argued and resolved, can be agitated—reappraisal of evidence is against the relevant provisions of law.
