Florida District Courts of Appeal, 1967

Gallagher v. State

Gallagher v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided May 31, 1967 · Carroll, Hendry, Pearson
199 So. 2d 501; 1967 Fla. App. LEXIS 4896 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Gallagher v. State

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The only substantial question presented on this appeal from four convictions for uttering forged instruments is whether the trial court erred in denying defendant’s motion for a continuance of trial. The motion was made at the time the cause was called for trial. The only basis for continuance advanced was appellant’s wish to have a longer time to make restitution. The court had previously granted a continuance for the same purpose.

Error has not been demonstrated. See Vitiello v. State, Fla.App.1964, 167 So.2d 629, 631.

Affirmed.
