Curlee v. State

RICE, Judge.

- Appellant was convicted of the offense of unlawfully being in possession of a quantity of whiskey.

At the close of the'taking of testimony he asked the court, in writing, to instruct the jury that they could not convict him.

In addition to the above, after his conviction, and within the time prescribed by law, he made to the court a motion to set aside the verdict of the jury, and the judgment entered thereon, and grant him a new trial. Exception to the action of the court in overruling this motion is duly shown by the bill- of exceptions filed here. Our duty is plain.
