Court of Civil Appeals of Texas · Decided January 9, 1886 · White
20 Tex. Ct. App. 133; 1886 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 20

Ramirez v. State

Opinion of the Court

White, Presiding Judge.

So far as the fraudulent taking of the animal is concerned, the evidence is wholly circumstantial. Ho charge or instruction was given the jury by the court upon the law applicable to such a state of facts. It is therefore, as has been repeatedly decided, fundamentally deficient. (See authorities collated in Wright v. The State, 18 Texas Ct. App., 358.)

The judgment is reversed and the cause remanded.

Reversed and remanded.
