Syllabus

<p>COURTS—FIXING CASES—PUBLICATION OF NOTICE-CRIMINAL LAW—CONTINUANCE-WITHDRAWAL OF ATTORNEY.</p> <p>1. There is no law requiring the publication in the newspapers of notice of the fixing of cases in the district courts.</p> <p>2. The matter of granting or refusing a continuance is largely within the discretion of the trial judge, and, when the continuance is refused upon a question of fact, his ruling will not be disturbed.</p> <p>3. The refusal of the trial judge to permit the attorney for the defendant to withdraw after a continuance has been refused, and the jury called, works no injury to the defendant.</p> <p>(Syllabus by the Court.)</p>
