Syllabus

<p>1. Judgment.—When the defendant in a criminal cause has been found guilty by the verdict of a jury, and appeals before an entry of final judgment against him, the District Court may enter final judgment nune pro lune after a term has intervened since the verdict.</p> <p>2. Jurisdiction.—Article 3151, Pas. Dig., does not restrict the general powers of the District Court to render the judgment at a later period than the first term after verdict, when it clearly appears that the prosecution has not been abandoned, and a proper case for the exercise of the power is presented.</p>
