Burkes v. State

24 S.E.2d 229, 68 Ga. App. 805, 1943 Ga. App. LEXIS 363

Opinion

Broyles, C. J.

The accused was convicted in the criminal court of Fulton County, of operating a lottery known as the “number game.” The judgment was rendered by the judge, sitting without a jury. The evidence, including the stipulation entered into by counsel for both parties as to the existence and operation of such a lottery in said county on the date of the defendant’s arrest and as to the manner of its operation, amply authorized the defendant’s conviction. The overruling of the certiorari was not error for any reason assigned.

Decided February 4, 1943. Bussell G. Turner, for plaintiff in error. Bond Almand, solicitor, John A. Boykin, solicitor-general, Bur-wood T. Pye, Bindley W. Gamp, solicitor, contra.

Judgment affirmed.

MacIntyre and Gardner, JJ., concur.
