Butler v. State

Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas · Decided January 29, 1913 · Davidson

153 S.W. 622; 69 Tex. Crim. 232; 1913 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 81 (South Western Reporter)

Opinion of the Court

DAVIDSON, Presiding Judge.

On motion of the Assistant Attorney-General the appeal in this case must be dismissed. The recognizance is insufficient in that it fails to state the amount of the punishment. The statute requires that this shall be done.

For the reason indicated the motion to dismiss the appeal is sustained. *

Dismissed.
