White v. State
Ohio Supreme Court
White v. State, 13 Ohio St. 569 (Ohio 1862)
13 Ohio St. (N.S.) 569
Coürt
White v. State
Opinion of the Court
A verdict and sentence for an assault only might be rendered under such an indictment. The assault was properly and sufficiently described, without adding the words “in a menacing manner,” contained in the statute which provides for punishing an assault. 1 S. & C. 428. The sentence of the court, in connection with the verdict of the jury, is sufficient to preclude a second indictment for the same offense. And it was not necessary that the indictment should be indorsed by the prosecutor for costs.
Judgment affirmed.
