Gordon v. State

DAVIDSON, Judge.

Unlawfully selling whisky in a dry area is the offense; the punishment, a fine of $100.00.

Russell, an agent of the Liquor Control Board testified that he purchased from the appellant a pint of whisky in Coleman County, for which he paid him $6.00. Said county was a dry area, within the meaning of the Liquor Control Act.

Notwithstanding appellant’s affirmative defense or alibi supported by other witnesses, the jury accepted Russell’s testimony and we are bound thereby. Appellant’s contention that the conviction should be reversed upon the facts is overruled.
