Opinion

Pee Cueiam..

The record indicates that the judgment was pronounced and entered without warrant or indictment, or waiver thereof (Gr.S. 15-140), and without arraignment, plea, or the intervention of a jury. It necessarily follows, then, that the judgment is void. This is conceded by the State. The judgment will be vacated and set aside. Of course, the Solicitor may send a bill, if so advised.

Eeversed.
