Criminal No. 180 Precedential Dismissed. Processed

Territory of Arizona v. Moore

Arizona Supreme Court · Filed March 30, 1905

Opinion text

THE COURT. The appellant in this case was tried before a justice of the peace upon a misdemeanor charge, and was convicted. He appealed to the district court, where a trial de novo resulted in a judgment of acquittal. The territory now seeks to prosecute a further appeal to the supreme court. From this it is debarred by section 1067 of the Penal Code, which provides: “. . . There shall be no appeal from a judgment of the district court rendered in a case appealed from a justice, police or recorder’s court.” The appeal will therefore be dismissed.
