Supreme Court of Florida, 1931

Watkins v. Noel

Supreme Court of Florida · Decided September 29, 1931 · Whitfield, Terrell, Davis, Buford, Ellis, Brown

137 So. 523; 102 Fla. 1041 (Southern Reporter)

Opinion of the Court

Whitfield, P.J.

— The final order remanding the petitioner in habeas corpus proceedings brought here on writ of error is reversed upon the principles announced in Roach v. Ephren, 82 Fla. 523, 90 So. 609; Dusenburg v. Chesney, 97 Fla. 468, 121 So. 567; 37 C. J. 200, sec. 53. This ease is in principle clearly unlike Penin. Cas. Co. v. State, 68 Fla. 411, 67 So. 165.

Reversed.

Terrell and Davis, J.J., concur. Buford, C.J., and Ellis and Brown, J. J., concur in the opinion and judgment.
