Dillon v. State

Opinion of the Court

DAVIDSON, Presiding Judge.

This conviction was for violating article 302 of the Penal Code, on a charge of exhibiting in a place of amusement on Sunday a moving picture show. The majority of the court holds the law valid and the conviction proper. I do not agree with their conclusions, but in obedience to the views of the majority as presented in the Zucarro case, this day decided, this judgment will be affirmed.

Affirmed.
