Opinion
Tbe question of law presented by tbe record is whether by virtue of tbe amendment of O. S., 4201, contained in chapter 249 of tbe Public Laws of 1933, involuntary manslaughter is a misdemeanor.
Tbe trial judge found that tbe municipal court of tbe city of Greensboro bad original and exclusive jurisdiction of all misdemeanors committed within Guilford County with certain exceptions not applicable to this case. This Court has heretofore, at this term, held, in S. v. Dunn, ante, 333, that chapter 249 of tbe Public Laws of 1933 does not make involuntary manslaughter a misdemeanor, and this cause is determined by the decision in tbe Dunn case, supra.
No error.
