Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>1. Robbery — Amendment to Information After Plea — Not Prejudicial Error. A conviction for robbery will not be set aside merely because an amendment to the information, setting out the ownership of the property taken, was allowed after the defendant had pleaded to an original information in which such allegation was omitted.</p> <p>2. Cross-examination — Discrediting Witness ■ — Judicial Discretion. The scope of cross-examination as to the past conduct of a witness, for the purpose of discrediting him, is largely discretionary, and in this case the discretion was not abused.</p>
