State v. Strickland

Opinion of the Court

PeR Cttrtam.

Defendant’s plea of former jeopardy has no merit. The bill of indictment returned in July 1955 charged no criminal offense. He is now, for the first time, charged with the criminal offense of which he stands convicted. S. v. Strickland, 243 N.C. 100, 89 S.E. 2d 781. The motion to quash is without merit. S. v. Mincher, 178 N.C. 698, 100 S.E. 339. Defendant’s other assignments of error have been examined and have been found to be equally wanting in merit.

No error.
