96 So. 941 (Ala. Crim. App. 1923)

Opinion

8 Div. 37.

May 29, 1923.

Appeal from Circuit Court, Jackson County; W.W. Haralson, Judge.


Defendant was indicted in two counts charging manufacturing whisky and possessing a still, and from the judgment of conviction he appeals. After carefully considering the evidence as shown by the record we are of the opinion that the evidence is not sufficient to justify a verdict of guilt. The court should have so instructed the jury as requested. For this error the judgment is reversed, and the cause is remanded. Reversed and remanded.
