Syllabus

<p>Criminal Law — Lewd and Lascivious Cohabitation — What Must be Proved.</p> <p>To convict of the crime of lewd and lascivious cohabitation, denounced by section 2596, Revised Statutes, there must be proved both lewd and lascivious intercourse, and a living or dwelling together as though the conjugal relation existed between the parties. Where the proofs show a residing together of the parties, but are silent as to any lewd and lascivious intercourse between them, there can be no conviction of the crime.</p>
