Bostick v. Commonwealth

Opinion of the Court

Opinion of the Court by

Judge Dietzman

Reversing.

Under an indictment charging appellant with all the offenses denounced by section 2554a-l, Kentucky Statutes, the Commonwealth elected to try him for that of “manufacturing moonshine liquor.” The evidence fails to disclose that the offense for which appellant was tried was committed within twelve months before the finding of the indictment.

Judgment reversed with directions to grant appellant a new trial herein.
