Opinion
The demurrer to the plea in abatement, based upon the ground of alleged former jeopardy or autrefois convict, was properly sustained by the judge of the city court; the judgment and sentence in the former case being rendered by the judge of the superior court in a county other than that in which the crime was committed, and being void and a nullity for want of jurisdiction. The decision herein is controlled by the ruling of this court in Barrs v. State, ante, 644.
Judgment affirmed.
