COOPER et al. v. THE STATE OF GEORGIA.

Supreme Court of Georgia.

October 17, 1882

September Term, 1882.

1. If two conspire to open a window and enter a store with intent to commit a larceny, and one opens it in part and leaves it thus, standing a short distance off, while the other hoists the sash high enough to enter, and does enter, except his lower limbs, and is then seized, both are guilty of burglary.

2. The verdict is supported by the evidence.

JACKSON, Chief Justice.
