Description
Franklin G. Fort was informed against in the Circuit Court, Osceola County, the information speaking in two counts. The first count charged that while intoxicated Fort operated his automobile on the public highways in such manner as to cause the death of Louis Bonati. The second count charged that by his act, procurement and culpable negligence, Fort operated his automobile in such negligent, careless and reckless manner as to collide with the automobile in which Louis Bonati was riding and killed him. The case was tried before a jury and at the close of the states case the court granted a motion for directed verdict for defendant as to count one. The motion for directed verdict as to count two was denied. Motion for directed verdict in favor of defendant at the close of the trial was denied; a motion for new trial was denied. The jury returned a verdict of manslaughter against defendant who was sentenced to a term of five years in the state penitentiary. This appeal is from that judgment.
