No. 6666.
    The State vs. Marie Ricard.
    The defendant was indicted for larceny in the District Court, and the case was trailsferred to the Parish Court. Upon arraignment in the Parish Court the accused waived trial by jury, and was there tried and convicted. The exception is that the cause could not be removed to the Parish Court until after the accused had waived trial by jury. Held, the defendant not only accepted but invited the jurisdiction oi the Parish Court by making her formal waiver there, and her conviction in that court was legal.
