Coots v. State
Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas · Decided November 17, 1909 · Davidson
122 S.W. 543; 57 Tex. Crim. 276; 1909 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 420 (South Western Reporter)

Coots v. State

Opinion of the Court

DAVIDSON, Presiding Judge.

Appellant was convicted of gaming. The only ground of the motion for new trial is based upon the statement that the evidence is not sufficient and the conviction is against the law. The evidence fully justifies this conviction, showing that appellant bet in a game of cards. We deem it unnecessary to collate the facts. Appellant introduced no evidence and the State proved that he bet while they were playing cards. The judgment is affirmed.

Affirmed.
