Rawls v. State

Court of Criminal Appeals of Oklahoma

Decided February 18, 1948No. A-10790PublishedCited by 15 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtJones, J.

The defendant, Alex Rawls, was charged by information filed in the district court of Love county with the crime of attempted rape, was tried, convicted and sentenced to serve the minimum term of seven and one-half years imprisonment in the State Penitentiary, and has appealed.

There are a large number of assignments of error in the brief of defendant. As will be hereinafter shown, it is apparent that this case will have to be reversed and remanded. For that reason, we have only undertaken to discuss those questions raised in the brief of the defendant which might again arise upon another trial.
