Text extracted by OCR from a scanned original; check the original for exact wording.

Candle», J.

The petition for certiorari complained that the verdict was contrary to law and the evidence, and that the court erred in refusing to grant a continuance. The evidence set out in the petition showed that the conviction of the accused was not unwarranted; and it did not appear that the trial judge abused his discretion in refusing to continue the case. It was therefore not error to refuse to sanction the petition for certiorari.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concur.
