People v. Hidaka

Supreme Court of California
Mar 28, 1904
76 P. 1127 (Cal. 1904)

Opinion

          In Banc. Appeal from Superior Court, Sacramento County; E. C. Hart, Judge. Kokichi Hidaka was convicted of murder, and appeals. Affirmed.

         COUNSEL

          James B. Devine and Frank D. Ryan, for appellant.

          U.S. Webb, Atty. Gen., for the People.


         OPINION

          PER CURIAM.

          The defendant was charged with the crime of murder in the killing of Mrs. T. Yoshimoto in Sacramento county in October, 1902, and upon trial he was found guilty of murder in the first degree. The appeal is from the order denying defendant’s motion for a new trial and from the judgment imposing upon said defendant the sentence of death. No briefs or points and authorities have been filed on the appeal, and when the case was reached on the calendar it was submitted without argument. This has imposed additional labor upon the court, as we have not been aided by counsel in suggesting or pointing out errors complained of. Nevertheless, being a capital case, we have fully examined the record on appeal, but find no prejudicial errors, or errors of such character as would at all justify a reversal. Judgment and order affirmed.
