People v. Rogers

California Supreme Court
People v. Rogers, 179 Cal. 818 (Cal. 1919)

People v. Rogers

Opinion of the Court

THE COURT.

This is an appeal by defendant from a judgment pronounced on a conviction of murder in the first degree, and from an order denying his motion for a new trial.

The record is in all material respects the same as that in People v. Rollins, ante, p. 793, [179 Pac. 209], The defendant and said Rollins were jointly engaged in the robbery of one Allen, and in the perpetration of that robbery killed Allen. The points made for reversal are the same as those made in that ease. For the reasons stated in the opinion therein those points must be held to be without merit. Examination of the record discloses no ground for reversal.

, The judgment and order denying a new trial are affirmed.

Melvin, J., Shaw, J., Sloss, J., Wilbur, J., Lawlor, J., Lennon, J., and Angellotti, C. J., concurred.
