Carter v. State

Opinion of the Court

Broyles, C. J.

John Carter was convicted in the superior court of Eloyd county of possessing more than one quart of tax-paid whisky, and his motion for new trial was overruled. The evidence, which was direct and positive, amply authorized the verdict; and the special grounds of the motion for new trial (all of them being based on alleged errors in *578 . the charge of the court) show no cause for a reversal of the judgment. See Carter v. State, ante. The cases cited in behalf of the movant are differentiated by their facts from this case.

Decided June 26, 1943. James Maddox, for plaintiff in error. Henderson Lanham, solicitor-general, contra.

Judgment affirmed.

MacIntyre and Gardner, JJ., concur.
