Jacques v. State
green
1 sentence1981Sec. 13-5-68 provides punishment of not more than six months imprisonment for any prisoner who escapes from the lawful custody of any law officer." The issue now presented is related to, but not exactly the same as, the issue as to a material variance between the indictment and the proof that was raised and decided adversely to appellant in Jacques v. State, supra. Now it appears that appellant takes the position that the indictment does not charge a violation of § 13-5-65 but at the most charges a violation of § 13-5-68. | 1 | 1981–1981 |
