People v. Courtney

Defendant Creely was charged jointly, but tried separately, with Don Courtney and John Sullivan (see opinion, People v.Courtney, ante, p. 198 [22 P.2d 741]), in an indictment returned by the grand jury of Los Angeles County, with the crime of extortion, in count I, and robbery, in count II. The jury returned a verdict finding him guilty on count I and not guilty on count II.

[1] Counsel for respondent herein confess that the evidence does not support the verdict and judgment, and with such conclusion we are forced to agree.

Judgment reversed.
