Description
The defendant was convicted of the crime of manslaughter and sentenced to serve a term of years in the state penitentiary. Appeal is brought from such conviction, it being urged there was lot sufficient evidence to warrant the, submission of the case, upon two counts, to the jury. These counts were that the defendant at the time of the automobile collision resulting in the death of Ruby M. Byrd was driving his automobile upon the wrong side of the highway when the same was not unobstructed for a distance of 500 feet, contrary to 68-510, 1941 Comp., an unlawful act not amounting to a felony, and that the death of the said Ruby M. Byrd was caused by the reckless driving of the defendant, contrary to 68-503, 1941 Comp., in failing to yield one-half of the highway to the oncoming car driven by the deceased, as required by 68-511, 1941 Comp.
