Opinion
Gen. No. 41,625. (Abstract of Decision.)
Opinion filed July 1, 1941
FALSE PRETENSES, § 22 — information, sufficiency. Where defendant who had been convicted of obtaining merchandise by false pretenses in two separate cases prosecuted only one writ of error, he could not obtain a review of the other judgment, information charging that defendant did then and there by means of false pretenses "obtain" the merchandise from prosecuting witness was not fatally defective for failure to allege that person defrauded, relying upon the false pretenses, parted with his property, and fixing time between March 2, 1939 and Feb. 16, 1940 was sufficient, as no bill of particulars was sought and such time was within the limitation period.
