HAVENS v. STATE.

Supreme Court of Arkansas.

April 17, 1950.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

L. H. Chastain and R. B. Chastain, Fort Smith, for appellant.

Ike Murry, Attorney General, Arnold Adams, Asst. Atty. General, for appellee.


MILLWEE, Justice.

Appellant was convicted of the crime of sodomy and his punishment fixed at 5 years in the penitentiary. The victim of appellant's alleged perverted lust was a ten-year-old boy.

The first five assignments in the motion for new trial challenge the sufficiency of the evidence to support the verdict and judgment, and allege error in the overruling of appellant's motion for a directed verdict at the conclusion of the State's testimony.
