Polk v State
1933 OK CR 85
24 P.2d 1119
55 Okl.Cr. 36
Decided: 08/04/1933
Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals

Appeal from District Court, Washita County; E.L. Mitchell, Judge.

The plaintiff in error was convicted of the crime of larceny of domestic fowls, and appeals. Affirmed.

Hughes & Hughes, for plaintiff in error.

J. Berry King, Atty. Gen., for the State.

DAVENPORT, J. The plaintiff in error, hereinafter in this opinion referred to as the defendant, was convicted of larceny of domestic fowls, and was sentenced to serve a term of two years in the State Reformatory at Granite, Okla., and appeals.

The testimony on behalf of the state shows that the defendant and E.S. Watkins were found in possession of a number of Rhode Island Red chickens, stolen from the chicken house of G.J. Nisle. The case was argued orally to the court by the attorneys for the plaintiff in error and the state. A careful consideration and examination of the record fails to disclose any fundamental or prejudicial errors sufficient to warrant a reversal. The evidence is sufficient to sustain the verdict of the jury.
