Description
MEMORANDUM OPINION ¶1 Plaintiff in error, Phillip Don Toosigah, hereinafter referred to as the defendant, was charged in the County Court of Caddo County, Oklahoma, with the crime of being ""drunk in a public place."" He was tried by a jury, found guilty, and his punishment assessed at 10 days in the county jail, and to pay a fine of $50.00. From that judgment and sentence he has appealed to this Court alleging one main assignment of error: ""That the trial court erred in failing to sustain defendant's motion to quash the jury panel."" More particularly, he complains that there were no Indians on the jury panel, and since the defendant was a full-blooded Indian, it was error.
