Court of Appeals of Kentucky.

Rehearing Denied January 22, 1965.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John Sharp, pro se.

Robert Matthews, Atty. Gen., Martin Glazer, Asst. Atty. Gen., Maubert R. Mills, Commonwealth's Atty., Madisonville, for appellee.


WILLIAMS, Judge.

John Sharp, convicted of incest, and serving an 18-year sentence in the penitentiary at Eddyville, appeals from an order overruling his motion to vacate the judgment under RCr 11.42.

Appellant sets out numerous grounds as basis for vacating the judgment, but presents no factual evidence to support them. A motion made under RCr 11.42 must state facts to support it. Jennings v. Commonwealth, Ky., 380 S.W.2d 284
