D C Crutchfield and Woodrow Teague, attorneys from Thomasville, pleaded guilty in superior court to forcible trespass and were taxed with costs. They had appealed from convictions for carrying a concealed weapon and assault with a deadly weapon tied to voting in the congressional run off between Burgin and Deane.
