Hunley v. State

Opinion of the Court

ANDERSON, Justice.

Much stress is laid on the conflict in the evidence for the state in certain respects, especially with reference to where the khaki hat or cap was found. Notwithstanding such conflicts, it was clearly a case for the jury— not for the court. There was no error in refusing to direct a verdict for appellant, nor can it be said that the verdict was against the overwhelming weight of the evidence. There was no harmful error in the trial.

Affirmed.
