FANN v. STATE.

Supreme Court of Georgia

November 27, 1900

Syllabus by the Court.

The evidence, which was entirely circumstantial, being insufficient to establish the guilt of the accused with that degree of certainty which the law requires in such cases, the verdict of guilty should have been set aside and a new trial granted.

Lee Fann was convicted of crime, and brings error. Reversed.

P. H. Martin and J. L. Kent, for plaintiff in error.

Wm. Faircloth, for the State.

PER CURIAM.

Judgment reversed.
