Head Matter:
Sherrill HARSTON, Appellant, v. COMMONWEALTH of Kentucky, Appellee.
Court of Appeals of Kentucky.
Dec. 17, 1971.
Titus Lyle and Douglas Keen, Keen & Lyle, Scottsville, for appellant.
John B. Breckinridge, Atty. Gen., George F. Rabe, Asst. Atty. Gen., Frankfort, for appellee.

Opinion:
STEINFELD, Judge.
Appellant Sherrill Harston was found guilty of uttering forged checks in violation of KRS 434.130(2). He appeals, claiming only that his motions for a directed verdict of acquittal should have been sustained because "(t)he Commonwealth failed to prove the bank upon which the checks were written was authorized by law to do a general banking business." Such proof was unnecessary. Francis v. Commonwealth, Ky., 468 S.W.2d 287 (1971).
The judgment is affirmed.
All concur.
