Griffith v. Connecticut

Supreme Court of the United States
Griffith v. Connecticut, 218 U.S. 572 (1910)
31 S. Ct. 134; 54 L. Ed. 1155; 1910 U.S. LEXIS 2051

Griffith v. Connecticut

Opinion

Mr. Justice White

delivered the opinion of the court.

The parties to this record are the stale as in. No. 514, just decided, ante, p. 563, and the questions involved are the same, the prosecution being for similar offenses against the Connecticut act of 1907. Both cases were tried together. Upon the conviction in this, however, the trial court imposed the penalty of imprisonment. The two cases were disposed of by the Supreme Court of Errors in one opinion. As the decision in No. 514 is necessarily controlling, it follows that the judgment -of the Supreme Court of Errors of Connecticut must be and it is

Affirmed.
