US v. TAN-QUINCHAN +

DECISION

G.R. No. 5015

[ G.R. No. 5015, September 22, 1909 ]

THE UNITED STATES, PLAINTIFF AND APPELLEE, VS. TAN-QUINCHAN, DEFENDANT AND APPELLANT.

D E C I S I O N

MORELAND, J.:

Defendant was convicted of estafa and sentenced to six months of arresto mayor, with accessory penalties, to make the stakeholder at a cockpit and, taking advantage of a disturbance, seized and appropriated all the money lying upon a table. As the lower court had every opportunity to observe the witnesses upon the stand, evidence held sufficient to sustain conviction and judgment affirmed, but subsidiary imprisonment limited to the provisions of article 50.

Per Moreland, J.
For appellant: Wade H. Kitchens.
For appellee: Solicitor-General Harvey.
