Gilbert v. State

Opinion of the Court

Wyatt, Justice.

The only error assigned is the judgment overruling the motion for a new trial. The motion being based on the general grounds only, and an examination of tlie record disclosing that the evidence supports the verdict, and that the verdict has received the approval of the trial judge, the judgment refusing a new trial will not be disturbed.
