Mixon v. State

Court of Criminal Appeals of Alabama

Decided April 20, 1976No. 1 Div. 663Published

1Opinion of the Court

BOWEN W. SIMMONS, Supernumerary Circuit Judge.

A jury’s verdict convicted appellant-defendant of selling marihuana, a controlled substance. Act No. 1407, p. 2378, Acts of 1971; § 29(d), Alabama Uniform Controlled Substances Act, Title 22, (Supplement) Recompiled Code 1958. The court sentenced defendant to seven years imprisonment. The record does not indicate that appellant was an indigent.

It appears from the evidence that the alleged sale was made to J. D. Burchett, an undercover agent for the state; that the sale was made at the home of defendant. The sale price was $30.00 for two “lids.”
