Clark v. State
Clark v. State
37 Ga. App. 496; 140 S.E. 782
Clark v. State
Opinion of the Court
In a prosecution for manufacturing whisky the solicitor-general asked a witness for the State: “Have you had information, or reported information, that the defendant is continuously engaged in the liquor traffic?” The witness answered, “Yes.” The corirt overruled a motion of the defendant’s counsel to exclude the evidence upon the ground that it was hearsay and irrelevant. Held: Such evidence was hearsay; and the judgment is reversed for this reason alone, it being unnecessary at this time to consider the other assignments of error.
Judgment reversed.
