State v. Myers

Ohio Supreme Court

State v. Myers

164 Ohio St. (N.S.) 273

Ohio Supreme Court·Decided November 16, 1955·No. No. 34447·Published

Opinion

Per Curiam.

The sole issue here presented by the record is whether the evidence is sufficient to warrant the trial court’s finding of guilty.

If the evidence in a case of this kind is such that no reasonable trier of the facts could fail to have a reasonable doubt as to whether the defendant was guilty, his conviction should be set aside. An examination of the bill of exceptions discloses [274]*274that this is not such a case. The judgment of the Court of Appeals is affirmed.

Judgment affirmed.

Weygandt, C. J., Matthias, Hart, Zimmerman, Stewart, Bell and Taet, JJ., concur.
