Decision Date | 30 June 1899 |
Citation | 26 So. 645,123 Ala. 55 |
Parties | ROBERSON v. STATE. |
Court | Alabama Supreme Court |
Appeal from circuit court, Cullman county; Ed B. Almon, Judge.
Luther Roberson was convicted of larceny, and appeals. Affirmed.
On the trial of the case the evidence for the state tended to show that the defendant was guilty as charged, and that he brought the cow to the city of Cullman, and sold her to a butcher. The evidence for the defendant tended to show that he purchased the cow alleged to have been stolen from a man who brought it to his house, and that he (the defendant) did not know, at the time of purchasing the cow, that it had been stolen. The defendant, as a witness in his own behalf testified that he never saw one Andy Justice as he brought the cow to town for the purpose of selling her. This was all the testimony in the bill of exceptions in reference to Any Justice. The bill of exceptions contains the following recital: In this court a motion was made by the attorney general for a dismissal of the appeal, on the ground that there was no judgment of conviction shown by the record. The recital of the judgment entry, necessary to an understanding of the decision on this point, is sufficiently shown in the opinion.
J. J Curtis and F. E. St. John, for appellant.
