State v. Tessnear

The State’s evidence was sufficient to overrule defendant’s motions of nonsuit. State v. Ryals, 244 N.C. 75, 92 S.E. 2d 443; State v. Harrison, 239 N.C. 659, 80 S.E. 2d 481; State v. Avery, 236 N.C. 276, 72 S.E. 2d 670. He is, however, entitled to a new trial for the error he assigns in the charge. The possession of any quantity of non-taxpaid liquor is, without exception, unlawful and, under G.S. 18-11, such possession is pnma facie evidence that such liquor is kept for the purpose of being sold. State v. Guffey, 252 N.C. 60, 112 S.E. 2d 734; State v. Hill, 236 N.C. 704, 73 S.E. 2d 894.…
