Lead Opinion

The defendants were indicted in the late county court of Santa Clara county for the crime of grand larceny; and the ease having been submitted to a jury, the following verdict was rendered therein:

Judgment was entered upon the foregoing verdict against both of the defendants, and the defendant Sepulveda having moved the court for a new trial, which motion was denied, appeals from the judgment and order.

*120 There were two defendants on trial, and a verdict finding the defendant guilty, without specifying which of the two defendants, was void for uncertainty: Richards v. Sperry, 7 AYis. 219; 3 Graham and Waterman on New Trials, 1378. Judgment and order reversed.
