    196 F.

    2d 257

    BRADSHER,
    v.
    UNITED STATES.
    No. 4421.

    United States Court of Appeals Tenth Circuit.


    April 21, 1952.

    Edwin Langley, U.S. Atty., Muskogee, Okl. (Paul Gotcher, Asst. U.S.
    Atty., Muskogee, Okl., on the brief), for appellee.
    Before PHILLIPS, Chief Judge, and BRATTON and HUXMAN, Circuit
    Judges.
    PER CURIAM.

    Drawn under 18 U.S.C. 2316, the indictment in this case charged that Sam
    Leonard Bradsher and James Marion Denney transported two described cows in
    interstate commerce from Hot Springs, Arkansas, to Henryetta, Oklahoma,
    knowing them to have been stolen. Defendant Denney entered a plea of nolo
    contenderie. Defendant Bradsher was tried to a jury, found guilty, and
    sentenced to imprisonment; and he appealed.

    No brief was filed or oral argument submitted on behalf of appellant. Despite


    the apparent abandonment of the appeal, we have examined the record with
    care. The indictment charged an offense under the statute; the evidence together
    with the inferences fairly to be drawn from it was abundantly sufficient to
    establish the charge and sustain the verdict; the instructions of the court were
    full and fair; and no prejudicial error appears in the record. Accordingly, the
    judgment is affirmed.
