People v. Padilla
People v. Padilla
Opinion of the Court
delivered the opinion of the court.
This is a case which. originated in the Municipal Court of San Germán and went from the latter on appeal to the District Court of Mayagiiez, where, after a new trial, the defendant, Felipe Padilla, was found guilty of a crime against the electoral franchise and sentenced, on February 1, 1907, to pay a fine of $50, or in default thereof, to be imprisoned in jail for one month, and to pay the costs.
An appeal was also taken from this judgment.
But there is no bill of exceptions or statement of facts, nor has the appellant even appeared in this Supreme Court, and for these reasons it appears that his only purpose in taking this appeal was to delay the execution of the judgment of conviction rendered by the District Court of Mayagüez.
Affirmed.
