Capital Offenses :
Cannot Be Appealed

Al act. of the Arkansas General
Assembly of 1899 makes the fol-
lowing provision: ~,
when any person shall be COM
yicted in any of the Circuit courts
of this state for any offense other
than capital offense, or in any case
in which sentence has hereto
fore been imposed and execution
suspended, the Circuit Court in
which said conviction is had may
grant defendant an appeal to the
|Supreme. court"
A strict Interpretation, Of this
statute means that the circuit court
has no power to grant an APP
peal in capital case and yet this
is being done regularly by courts
jail owes the state. 1t appears that
the question has, mot been raised
but when attention is called to the
'1paeuliar wording. Of the law ii is
fprobab1e that it will not much lon
ger go unehallenged- The statute
clearly provides that the circuit
court may grant appeals only in
cases other than capital offenses.
