Decided June 30, 1921No. 12437PublishedCited by 3 opinions

Accusation of carrying pistol without license; from city court of Carrollton- — ■ Judge Hood. April 1, 1921.

1Opinion of the CourtBroyles, C. J.

1. The evidence authorized a finding that the offense charged was committed by the defendant in the county of Carroll.

2. The ground of the motion for a new trial, based upon alleged newly discovered evidence, is fatally defective; as ihe newly discovered evidence is that of witnesses, and no affidavits as to their residence, associates, means of knowledge, character, and credibility were adduced. Civil Code (1910), § 6086.

3. The evidence authorized the verdict, and the court did not err in overruling the motion for a new trial.

Judgment affirmed.

Luke and Bloodworth, JJ., concur.
