State v. Buck

46 Me. 531 | Me. | 1859

The Court

held, that, notwithstanding only the collective value of the property alleged to have been stolen is stated in the indictment, yet, if the jury find the defendant guilty of stealing a part only of the property, and, in their verdict, state the value of the articles so stolen by him, judgment may be well rendered upon such verdict.

Tenney, C. J., and Appleton, Cutting, May, Davis, and Kent, J. J., concurred.
