Elardo v. State

The appellant was tried and convicted on a charge of possessing intoxicating liquors, in a justice of the peace court of Le Flore county, Mississippi, and appealed from that to the county court, where the cause was tried anew, resulting in a conviction in that court, from which he appealed to- the circuit court, and there the judgment of conviction was affirmed. The circuit judge having certified that a constitutional question is involved, an appeal is prosecuted here.

The question turns upon the legality of the search by which the evidence, upon which the appellant was convicted, was procured.
