2697.
    Venable v. City of Atlanta.
    Decided January 24, 1911.
    Certiorari; from Fulton superior court — Judge Bell. April 12, 1910.
    
      Burton Cloud, for plaintiff in error.
    
      J. L. Mayson, TF. D. Bilis Jr., contra.
   JRussell, J.

Though the conduct of the prosecutor and his occupation of detective were such as to throw doubt upon his statements, nevertheless his testimony was competent, and sufficient to authorize the defendant’s conviction in the recorder’s-court; and as the only assignment o'f error insisted upon here is that the evidence was not sufficient to authorize the conviction, an affirmance of the judgment overruling the certiorari necessarily results. Judgment affirmed.
