State v. . Biggerstaff
Supreme Court of North Carolina · Decided December 20, 1923 · PER CURIAM.
119 S.E. 171; 186 N.C. 784; 1923 N.C. LEXIS 366 (South Eastern Reporter)

State v. . Biggerstaff

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Defendant relies entirely upon his demurrer to the evidence and motion for dismissal, or for judgment as of nonsuit under O. S., 4643. Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the State, the accepted position on a motion of this hind (S. v. Rountree, 181 N. C., 535), we think the trial court was justified in submitting the case to the jury, and that the verdict is fully supported by the evidence.

No benefit would be derived from detailing the testimony of the several witnesses, as the only question before us is whether it is sufficient to carry the case to the jury, and we think it is.

No error.
