Description
Appeal by Harry Lee Stuver from a judgment of the Jefferson Circuit Court convicting him of the felony of burglary in the
second degree and imposing as punishment a sentence of five years' confinement in the custody of the Department of Corrections.
The case is before us on a full transcript and the state's brief, but without a brief on the part of the complaining party,
who will be hereinafter referred to as defendant. We look, then, to the motion for new trial for his assignments of error,
and examine such of them as may preserve anything for review, and are necessary to the proper Disposition of this appeal. The building charged to have been burglarized is located on U.S. Highways 61 and 67 in Jefferson County just north of Imperial,
and known as Welcome Inn Bowling Lanes. It was owned by Al Redinger, and the equipment therein used in the operation of the
bowling alley was owned by his son-in-law and daughter, Jim and Marie Herrell. The structure is 165 feet long and 52 feet
wide, contains eight lanes, each 85 or 90 feet in length, and has several rooms - among others, a kitchen and a furnace room.
At the time in question the structure and equipment were leased to Joe Cunningham. Soda, candy, cigarettes and similar items
of merchandise were kept on hand and sold as a part of the business. Oliver Blaha, the manager, lived in a trailer some 50
feet south of the building, and the Herrells lived next door to the bowling alley, but on the opposite or north side.
