143 N.W. 364 | S.D. | 1913
The defendant and appellant was convicted of-a violation of section 2945, Pol. Code, which provides: “It shall be unlawful for any person or persons who occasionally slaughter cattle for beef to offer for sale said beef without exhibiting the hide or hides of such beef at the time and place said beef is offered for sale.” From the judgment of conviction and an order denying a new trial, he has appealed. Appellant has assigned numerous errors which present but a few separate questions.
Appellant contends that the evidence was wholly insufficient to support the verdict, but he has failed to comply witih rule 6 of this court (140 N. W. viii) providing: “That, whenever the appellant shall seek to rely upon an assignment to the effect that the evidence was insufficient to support the verdict, finding, or other decision, he shall cause it to affirmatively appear thait the * * * statement in his brief contains a statement of all the material evidence received upon the -trial,” which requirement is by rule 9 (140 N. W. ix) made to apply to criminal causes. Furthermore the record as presented discloses ample evidence to sustain the verdict rendered unless appellant is correct in his contention that it was necessary, under the information filed, for the state to prove that the beef sold was from cattle killed by the appellant in Pennington county, S. D.; whether or not there was evidence
The judgment and order appealed from are affirmed.
