Opinion

53779, 53780.

SUBMITTED APRIL 5, 1977.

DECIDED JUNE 13, 1977.

Cruelty to child. Richmond Superior Court. Before Judge Pierce.

Archie L. Gleason, for Brown.

Harrison, Jolles, Miller Bush, Charles F. Miller, Jr., for Culbreath.

Richard E. Allen, District Attorney, Evita A. Paschall, Assistant District Attorney, for appellee.

SMITH, Judge.

The appellants jointly were indicted, tried before a jury, and convicted of the offense of cruelty to a child. The evidence before the jury was properly elicited and was sufficient to support the verdict. The court's charge viewed as a whole correctly stated the law applicable to the evidence and the issues, and the appellants were properly sentenced. The enumerations of error presented by both appeals are meritless.

Judgments affirmed. Bell, C. J., and McMurray, J., concur.
