John Buck Gets Another Chance With a
jury.
The Court of Errors and Appeals Mon
day filed an opinion in the case of John
Buck, who was convicted of selling
liquor illegally. Justice Garrison filed
the opinion, reversing the Judgment of
the lower court, and ordering new trial
in the suit. Buck was convicted in
Cumberland county on an indictment
charging him with selling liquor with
out license, and conducting disor-
derly house in Bridgeton. The court
holds that under an indictment, charging
that the offences were committed in
Bridgeton, evidence showing offenses
committed in other parts of the county,
should not have been admitted, and that
the trial judge erred when he refused to
order an acquittal, if no evidence show
ing that Buck violated the law in Bridge.
