Harris v. State
Alabama Court of Appeals
1Opinion of the Court
HARWOOD, Judge.
This appellant was by a jury found guilty of manslaughter in the first degree. The indictment charged murder in the second degree. Imprisonment in the penitentiary for a term of three years was the penalty duly imposed.
In the trial below a motion to quash the indictment was filed. Demurrers filed by the state to this motion to quash were sustained. In our opinion no error can be attached to the lower court’s ruling in this premise because of the general and nonspecific character of the grounds assigned in support of the motion.
