Mays v. State

Opinion of the Court

HAWKINS, J.

Conviction is for manslaughter. Punishment is five years in the penitentiary.

The record is before us without a statement of facts. The only exceptions relate to the refusal of two special charges requested by appellant. Without knowledge of the facts, we cannot know the relevancy of the requested charges, but must presume the court’s action in refusing them was correct.

The judgment is affirmed.
