Johnson v. State
Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
Johnson v. State, 234 S.W. 395 (Tex. Crim. App. 1921)
90 Tex. Crim. 227; 1921 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 87
Morrow
Johnson v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellant is convicted of robbery; punishment fixed at confinement in the penitentiary for a period of twenty-five years.
The sentence is wrong in failing to take account of the Indeterminate Sentence Law. As it reads, it condemns appellant to confinement for *228 the “full period of twenty-five years.” It should read: “for a period of not less than five nor more than twenty-five years.” It is so amended.
We find neither statement of facts nor bills of exceptions, and discern no fundamental errors requiring a reversal.
The judgment is affirmed.
Affirmed & Reformed.
