Ohio Supreme Court · Decided June 11, 1901 · Spear
64 Ohio St. (N.S.) 610

State ex rel. Attorney General v. Runyan

Opinion of the Court

Sentence, $250 fine and ten days imprisonment and costs of suit, and to stand committed until fine and costs are paid.

Davis and Shaltck, JJ., are of opinion that the term of imprisonment is too short in view of the gravity of the offense, and that in view of the doctrine of Hale v. State, 55 Ohio St., 210, the power of the court in that regard is not restricted by any valid statute.

Spear, J., absent.
