Hicks v. People

Opinion of the Court

Opinion

per Curiam.

The plaintiff in error was convicted of a conspiracy to obtain money from Jefferson county by means of the confidence game. The prosecution arose under the joint indictment involved in the recently-considered case of Olde v. People, 112 Colo. 15, 145 P. (2d) 100. The Attorney General has filed a confession of error, consenting to the reversal of the judgment of conviction and *151 the remanding of the cause to the district court for such further action as may be indicated. In these circumstances, in accord with our pronouncements in the opinions in Soto v. People, 64 Colo. 528, 173 Pac. 399, and Richardson v. People, 69 Colo. 155, 170 Pac. 189, the judgment is reversed and- the cause remanded.
