Hubbard v. State

RODGERS, Presiding Justice.

Will Hubbard, Jr. was indicted by the Grand Jury of Grenada County, Mississippi on a felony charge of assault and battery with intent to kill and murder. He was tried in the Circuit Court of Grenada County, convicted of a simple assault, sentenced to serve six (6) months in the county jail, and to pay a fine of five hundred dollars *171($500.00). He has appealed to this Court and contends that he should be given a new trial, because [among other alleged errors] the defendant was not served with a copy of the indictment.
