Lindsey v. State

Alabama Court of Appeals

Decided June 13, 1939No. 7 Div. 455Published

1Opinion of the Court

SAMFORD, Judge.

The indictment was in Code form, and sufficiently charged the offense. Code 1923, § 4556, Form 27.

The building charged to have been burglarized was in the possession of R. H. Cole and his brother, who was his partner in business. The possession of the property was properly laid in R. H. Cole, and is sufficient to support a verdict upon evidence disclosing the fact that the business was operated by Cole and his brother. Spradling v. State, 17 Ala. 440; Young v. State, 100 Ala. 126, 14 So. 872; Hale v. State, 122 Ala. 85, 26 So. 236; Chiles v. State, 23 Ala.App. 532, 128 So. 468.
