Description
SIMS, Justice. Appellant, Estill Howard, was jointly indicted with his brother, Will, and his father, Jack, for the murder of Charles McKinney by cutting or stabbing him with a knife. Upon a separate trial Estill was convicted of manslaughter and his punishment was fixed at confinement in the penitentiary for 21 years. He asks that the judgment be reversed because: 1. The verdict is flagrantly against the evidence and a peremptory instruction should have been given in his behalf; 2. the court erred in not giving the whole law of the case and in improperly instructing the jury; 3. the court erred in permitting the Commonwealth to introduce evidence in chief after the defense had closed; 4. the proof did not show the homicide was committed in Leslie County where the trial was held.
