Weaver v. State

Weaver v. State

Opinion of the Court

Broyles, C. J.

The only point argued in the brief of counsel for the plaintiff in error is that the defendant was illegally convicted because the only testimony connecting him with the offense charged was that of uncorroborated accomplices. The rule of law that the defendant in a criminal case can not legally be convicted upon the uncorroborated testimony of an accomplice (Penal Code, § 1017) does not apply to misdemeanor cases.

Judgment affirmed.

Lulce and Bloodworih, JJ., concur.
