Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by The proceedings leading up to and giving rise to this appeal
are essential to its disposition, hence they will be noted as
briefly as the state of the record permits. After a preliminary examination, in which he was held for
trial, defendant O.W. Hess was charged by an information,
containing four counts, properly filed in the district court of
Wabaunsee County, with the commission of four felonies involving
the theft and embezzlement of cattle. Thereafter, on his own
motion, he obtained a change of venue from Wabaunsee County to
Osage County where, in the district court of the last mentioned
county, he was tried by a jury. When such jury failed to reach a
verdict a mistrial was declared. During the course of this trial
counts 3 and 4 of the information were dismissed.
