State v. Alston
Supreme Court of North Carolina
State v. Alston, 72 S.E.2d 686 (N.C. 1952)
236 N.C. 299; 1952 N.C. LEXIS 543
Per Curiam
State v. Alston
Opinion
The record indicates that the judgment was pronounced and entered without warrant or indictment, or waiver thereof (Gr.S. 15-140), and without arraignment, plea, or the intervention of a jury. It necessarily follows, then, that the judgment is void. This is conceded by the State. The judgment will be vacated and set aside. Of course, the Solicitor may send a bill, if so advised.
Eeversed.
