259 F. 208 | 6th Cir. | 1919
The plaintiffs in error in these three cases were convicted of violating the Reed Amendment (Act March 3, 1917, c. 162, 39 Sfat. 1069 [Comp. St. 1918, § 8739a]) — Berryman and Gold upon a joint-indictment. They were arrested (Tucker at one time and place, and Berryman and Gold at another) in the state of Tennessee, some 50 miles northeast of Memphis, and while driving towards Memphis an automobile filled with intoxicating liquor. Our recent decision in Laughter v. United States, 259 Fed. 94, 170 C. C. A. 162, January 17, 1919, covers all the questions involved in all cases, except as to the points now to be mentioned.
The convictions and sentences must be affirmed in all three cases.
