Riggle v. State

Opinion of the Court

DAVIDSON, Presiding Judge.

This conviction was for violation of article 303, P. C., wherein appellant was convicted for exhibiting in a place of amusement a moving picture show on Sunday.

The majority of the court have held the law constitutional and valid in the Zucarro case, this day decided. I can not agree and will write reasons later for that non-concurrence and file in the Zucarro case. Under the authority of the Zucarro case this judgment will be affirmed.

Affirmed.
