SHACKLEFORD v. STATE

No. 29,059.

232 Ind. 694 (1953)

115 N.E.2d 120

SHACKLEFORD v. STATE OF INDIANA.

Supreme Court of Indiana.

Rehearing denied December 12, 1953.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

William S. Mercuri, of Indianapolis, for appellant.

Edwin K. Steers, Attorney General and Carl Humble, Deputy Attorney General, for appellee.


FLANAGAN, J.

Appellant was convicted of grand larceny under § 10-3001, Burns' 1942 Replacement. The charge was that he stole a quantity of type lead from his employer after working hours. He admits that he took the lead.

But he says that, since he took the property of his employer, he should be charged with embezzlement instead of larceny. The embezzlement statute is § 10-1704 Burns' 1942 Replacement.
