State v. Mavros

258 P. 21, 144 Wash. 340, 1927 Wash. LEXIS 773

Opinion

Askren, J.

Appellant Mavros appeals from a conviction of being a jointist and a sentence to the penir tentiary. Many assignments of error are noted, but the only one which we think requires consideration in this opinion is the claim that the court erred in permitting reputation evidence concerning the premises which the appellant was álleged to have maintained as a place for the sale of liquor.

The evidence showed sales of intoxicating liquor by the appellant Mavros. Under the rule of State v. Stuttard, 143 Wash. 426, 255 Pac. 663, and State v. Radoff, 140 Wash. 202, 248 Pac. 405, this was sufficient to establish actual knowledge of the purpose for which the premises were used, and reputation evidence was therefore inadmissible.

Judgment reversed.
