May 20, 1968.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Alvin Bronstein, R. Jess Brown, James A. Lewis, Jackson, for appellant.

Joe T. Patterson, Atty. Gen., by G. Garland Lyell, Jr., Asst. Atty. Gen., Jackson, for appellee.


ETHRIDGE, Chief Justice:

C.O. Chinn, appellant, was indicted by a Madison County, Mississippi, grand jury of assault and battery with intent to kill William Longgrear. The venue was changed to the First Judicial District of Hinds County, the jury found him guilty, and the circuit court sentenced appellant to ten years in the state penitentiary. Because of substantial errors in the trial, we reverse the conviction and remand this case for a new trial.
