State v. Hayes

The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Mr. Justice StabeEr.

The defendant was tried and convicted in the Court of General Sessions for Dillon County on a charge of manufacturing intoxicating liquors, and was sentenced by his Hon- or, Judge Featherstone, to six months’ imprisonment. After conviction and before sentence a motion was made for a new trial on the ground that there was no- testimony to support the verdict of the jury. This motion was refused. The defendant appeals, and by two exceptions imputes error to the Circuit Judge in refusing to grant his motion for a new trial.
