Ward v. State

EVANS, J.- —(1) It is within the sound discretion of the trial court to permit a witness, who was put under the rule, to testify, notwithstanding his disobedience and infraction of the rule in talking to others about the case; and such action of the trial court will not be revised upon appeal. — Sanders v. State, 105 Ala. 4, 16 South. 935; Hall v. State, 137 Ala. 44, 34 South. 680; Burks v. State, 120 Ala. 386, 24 South. 931; Strickland v. State, 151 Ala. 31, 44 South. 90. Consequently, we do not review the exceptions reserved to the admission of witness George Armstrong to testify.(2)…
