Description
DECEMBER 9, 1933, upon an information charging them with false pretenses and confidence game, the plaintiffs in error, defendants below, were tried and convicted in the Denver district court. After motion for a new trial was overruled, a sentence of from two to ten years in the state penitentiary was imposed upon the verdict. While numerous errors are assigned for reversal, some with probable merit, only one challenges our attention for the disposition of this case. That assignment is No. 16 and is as follows: "The court erred in refusing to grant defendants motion for a directed verdict on the remaining court of the information after the district attorney had withdrawn the first count thereof at the close of the peoples case."
