114 Ala. 10

White v. State

Opinion of the Court

McCLELLAN, J. —

The city court erred in excluding from the jury proposed testimony going to show that the general character of State’s witness, Barnes, was bad. McCutchen v. Loggins, 109 Ala. 457, 465 ; Rhea v. State, 100 Ala. 119, 122, and cases there cited.

The other exceptions reserved on the trial are patently without merit.

Reversed and remanded.
