English v. State
English v. State
Opinion
Floyd English was indicted for "knowingly enter[ing] or remain[ing] unlawfully in a building of Emily B. Davis with intent to commit a crime therein", in violation of §
The sufficiency of the evidence is raised for the first time on appeal. It has long been the established law in this state that the sufficiency of the evidence is not subject to review by this court unless the appellant has challenged such evidence by a motion to exclude the State's evidence, motion for judgment of acquittal, request for the affirmative charge, or through a motion for new trial filed in the trial court. SeeGeorge v. State,
In the present case, the record does not reveal that any of the above procedures were followed. Therefore this court has nothing before it which can be subjected to review. *Page 459
This record is free of error and therefore this cause is affirmed.
AFFIRMED.
All the Judges concur.
