Court of Appeals of Kentucky (pre-1976)

Opinion op the Court by
Morris, Commissioner
Affirming.
This is the second appeal of this case. On the first trial below appellant was found guilty of voluntary manslaughter and the punishment fixed at four years’ confinement in the penitentiary. Upon appeal the judgment was reversed because of the failure of the court to give an instruction on the subject of involuntary manslaughter, and upon a retrial of the case appellant was again found guilty and given a two-year sentence, the minimum under the law as to voluntary manslaughter. For opinion on first appeal, see 250 Ky. 486, 63 S. W. (2d) 606.
