State v. Addison, 127 S.E. 368 (S.C. 1925)

131 S.C. 169; 1925 S.C. LEXIS 132

Cothran, Messrs, Watts, Fraser, Marion, Gary

Opinion of the Court

The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Mr. Justice Cothran,.

Upon consideration of the evidence in this case, a review of which would serve no useful purpose, the Court is convinced that it was not sufficient to justify a submission of the issue of the defendant’s guilt to the jury, *171 and that his motion for a directed verdict should have been granted.

The judgment of the Circuit Court is reversed.

Messrs. Justices Watts, Fraser and Marion concur. Mr. Chief Justice Gary did not participate.
