Gordon v. State

Supreme Court of Alabama

Decided February 12, 1959No. 8 Div. 946PublishedCited by 26 opinions

1Per curiam

We are of opinion that reversible error is not made to appear in connection with the trial court’s refusal to give defendant’s written requested Charge No. 6. Although under our cases this charge does state a correct statement of the law, we are firmly convinced that the same rule of law was substantially and fairly given to the jury in the court’s general charge and written Charge 7, given at the request of the defendant. Section 273, Title 7, Code 1940.

The judgment of the Court of Appeals is reversed.

Reversed and remanded.
