Lead Opinion
Defendant was charged by information with the crime of grand larceny. He was tried, convicted, and sentenced under the indeterminate sentence law. He now appeals from the judgment and from an order denying his motion for a new trial.
The information charged the defendant with having, on or about November 10, 1916, at the city and county of San Francisco, feloniously taken an electric lamp, one lot of silverware, one lot of cut glass, certain pictures, a sewing-box, and one lot of linen, the same-being the personal property of C. B. Blanchard.
Defendant makes no point on this appeal other than that of the sufficiency of the evidence. As to this he claims that the evidence is insufficient in four respects, namely: (1) That there is no proof that the property in question was that of the complaining witness; (2) that the evidence failed to show that the property was stolen by defendant from Blanchard; (3) that the evidence was insufficient to show that the value of the articles stolen was more than fifty dollars; (4) that there is a variance, in that the crime proven is that of embezzlement and not larceny.
