Carswell v. State
Carswell v. State
13 Ga. App. 624; 79 S.E. 589; 1913 Ga. App. LEXIS 278
Carswell v. State
Opinion of the Court
The accused was convicted, under an accusation in the city court, of the offense of drunkenness on church grounds. The evidence shows that he had a bottle containing a small quantity of whisky, but there is no evidence whatever that he was in a condition of drunkenness while on the church grounds. His conviction was therefore unauthorized.
Judgment reversed.
