Davis v. State
16 Ga. App. 162 | Ga. Ct. App. | 1915
“The venue of a prosecution under the labor-contract act (Penal Code of 1910, §§ 715, 716) is in the county where the advances were received.” Lewis v. State, 15 Ga. App. 405 (83 S. E. 439, 440); Dyas v. State, 126 Ga. 556 (55 S. E. 488). Since there was no proof of venue in the present case, and the particular point was specifically raised in the motion for a new trial (Acts 1911, pp. 149, 150), the court erred in overruling the motion for a new trial.
Judgment reversed.
