17 Ga. App. 414 | Ga. Ct. App. | 1915
1. The offense is characterized in the indictment not by the name given it therein, but by criminal acts therein alleged to have been committed. Camp v. State, 3 Ga. 417; O’Halloran v. State, 31 Ga. 206; Aiken v. State, 90 Ga. 452 (1), 454 (16 S. E. 206), Disharoon v. State, 95 Ga. 351 (1), 356 (22 S. E. 698); Joyce on Indictments, § 334 (a).
(a) The indictment in this case was not defective because it alleged that the offense was a “felony,” when the facts alleged therein clearly showed it was a misdemeanor.
2. Eor the above reason the court did not err in overruling the demurrer to the indictment.
3. There was no error in ruling out the testimony as to the contents of the note, the note itself being the best evidence on that subject.
4. The instructions of the court complained of, when construed in the light of the evidence and of the entire charge, contain no material error.
5. There was some evidence to support the verdict, and, it having been approved by the trial judge, this court will not interfere.
Judgment affirmed.
