State V. Bradley

Henry Bradley was by information charged with the crimes of grand and petit larceny. The information contained eight counts, three alleging facts constituting grand larceny, and five charging the lesser crime. The counts were all based upon checks drawn by defendant during the month of April, 1935, which checks were not paid by the drawee bank because Bradley's account lacked funds sufficient to cover them. Defendant entered pleas of not guilty, and at the close of the State's case, the court, on defendant's motion, dismissed two of the counts contained in the information, one charging grand and the other petit larceny. The evidence on the other six counts was by the trial court submitted to the jury, which returned on each count a verdict of guilty as charged. A motion for a new trial having been overruled, judgment and sentence were entered upon the verdict, from which the defendant has appealed.
