    HUNT v. THE STATE. SADDLER v. THE STATE.
    Submitted June 12, 1972
    Decided July 12, 1972.
    
      Aultman, Hulbert, Cowart & Daniel, Robert L. Hartley, Jr., for appellants.
    
      R. Avon Buice, District Attorney, for appellee.
   Mobley, Chief Justice.

The appellants in these cases, councilmen of the City of Warner Robins, are co-indictees with the appellant in Beckman v. State, 229 Ga. 327. Under the decision in the Beckman case the presentments against these appellants are invalid, since they do not charge a violation of a penal law, and the demurrers making this contention should have been sustained.

Judgments reversed.

All the Justices concur.
