Commonwealth v. Averett

Appeals Court of Massachusetts
Feb 24, 1975
323 N.E.2d 741 (Mass. App. Ct. 1975)

Opinion

February 24, 1975.

Malvine Nathanson for the defendant.

Sandra Lee Hamlin, Assistant District Attorney, for the Commonwealth.


We do not consider the defendant's claim concerning the alleged exclusion of "paupers" from the grand jury which indicted him on May 8, 1972, because the defendant made no attempt to prove any such exclusion as matter of fact. See Commonwealth v. Stone, 366 Mass. 506, 509-510 (1974), and cases cited. We do not consider the sufficiency of the evidence to convict on either indictment because no such question was raised below.

Exceptions overruled.
