JACK JONES et al. v. STATE.
    No. A-2637.
    Opinion Filed January 26, 1918.
    (170 Pac. 274.)
    Appeal from County Court, Okmulgee County; Mark L. Bozarth, Judge.
    Jack Jones and E. A. Trout were convicted of the offense of unlawfully issuing warrants, and they appeal.
    Judgment reversed; case dismissed.
    M. M. Alexander, for plaintiffs in error.
    S. P. Freeling, Atty. Gen., and It. McMillan, Asst. Atty. Gen., for the State.
   PER CURIAM.

The exact questions raised in this appeal are decided adversely to the state in the case of W. Mun Reddell v. State, ante, p. 199, 170 Pac. 273, this day decided. Plaintiffs in error in this case were the other members of the school district board of which Reddeil was director. The prosecution is based upon the same sections of the statutes, and the members of the school board were informed against jointly for issuing a school district warrant upon the same transaction for which Reddeil was convicted.

Reddeil demanded and was granted a separate trial from these plaintiffs in error, and in accordance with the opinion in that case the judgment of conviction is reversed, with directions to the trial court to dismiss the prosecution.
