No. 5116.

Supreme Court of New Mexico.

Feb. 11, 1949.

C. C. McCulloh, Atty. Gen., Robert V. Wollard, and Walter Kegel, Asst. Attys. Gen., and Harry D. Robins, Asst. Dist. Atty., of Albuquerque, for plaintiff in error.

Wm. T. O’Sullivan, of Albuquerque, for defendant in error.

PER CURIAM.

The same questions are presented in this case as in the case of State v. McKinley, 53 N.M. 106, 202 P.2d 964, and with which it has been consolidated for oral argument and submission. Accordingly, on the authority of the pronouncements made in the opinion in the latter case, the judgment in this case is erroneous and should be reversed and the cause remanded to the District Court with a direction to set aside its judgment and enter an order overruling the defendants motion to quash and for further 'proceedings not inconsistent with the views expressed in the opinion in State v. McKinley, supra, this day decided.

It is so ordered,

BRICE, C. J., and SADLER, LUJAN and COMPTON, JJ., concur.

McGHEE, J., dissents.
