Pope v. State

Pope v. State
Supreme Court of Florida · Decided January 7, 1938 · Whitfield, Brown, Chapman, Ellis, Terrell, Buford
178 So. 111; 130 Fla. 579; 1938 Fla. LEXIS 1314 (Southern Reporter)

Pope v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Praecipe for dismissal of this appeal was filed by the appellants two days before the date set for oral argument. The case was argued by the Attorney General only. A careful consideration of the questions involved convinces us that no useful purpose could be served by denying the motion to dismiss the appeal and attempting to answer the questions raised by the State. Indeed it appears that this is now practically a moot case.

*580 Appeal dismissed on appellants’ motion, the costs to be assessed against the appellants.

Whitfield, P. J., and Brown and Chapman, J. J., concur. Ellis, C. J., and Terrell and Buford, J. J., concur in the opinion and judgment. •
