Pleich v. United States

HUNT, Circuit Judge.

Plaintiffs in error were charged with sales and possession of intoxicating liquor, and with maintaining a common nuisance. Vuckelich was convicted of all charges. Pleieh was convicted only of maintaining a nuisance. Writs of error were sued out.

Error is assigned upon the ruling admitting a number of empty whisky bottles found in the barroom by government officers just after the arrest of the defendants, and the plaintiffs in error question the legality of the arrests, which were made in the nighttime upon misdemeanor charges.

The general facts are quite similar to those…
