Text
Leon Manley under an indictment charging him with the offense of bastardy was tried and convicted in the City Court of Walker County. His amended motion for new trial was denied and he excepted to that judgment. Held:
1. Special grounds 4 and 10 of the amended motion assign error on the refusal of the court to give in charge to the jury in the exact language requested two timely written requests which appear to have been correct statements of the law and adjusted to the facts. While the court did, in the charge given, charge upon the principles involved in the requests, and in language that covered them in substantially the same manner, under the controlling decisions of the Supreme Court in Werk v. Big Bunker Hill Mining Corp.,
2. The remaining special grounds, all of which assign error on various excerpts from the charge of the court, are without merit. The general grounds are not ruled upon since the case is to be retried.
Charles L. Pickell, for plaintiff in error.
