Runck v. State

Appellant was charged by affidavit, in the language of the statute, with maintaining a nuisance in violation of §20, ch. 4, Acts 1917 p. 15 (§8356t Burns’ Supp. 1921). Overruling his motion to quash the affidavit, his motion for a new trial and his motion in arrest of judgment are assigned as errors. The motions to quash the affidavit and in arrest of judgment were for the alleged reason that said statute does not sufficiently define and forbid a public offense.
