Description
VAN SANT, Commissioner. Highway Patrolman A. H. Pace overtook a truck owned and being driven by appellant in Estill County. Pace caused appellant to stop and placed him under arrest for speeding. He thereupon searched the truck and found thirty cases of beer. He then charged appellant with having alcoholic liquor in his possession for sale in local option territory, upon which charge he was tried and convicted. He contends that the judgment should be reversed, because (1) the verdict was not supported by the evidence and was the result of passion and prejudice on the part of the jury; and (2) if wrong in this contention, the Court erred in his instructions to the jury.
