Sowers v. State
Sowers v. State
Opinion of the Court
The appeal is from a conviction for the sale of intoxicating liquor in a dry area, with a fine of $200.00.
An investigator for the Texas Liquor Control Board approached appellant and inquired where he could buy some whisky. Appellant said he would have to think. He then asked for the driver’s license, which was shown to him, after which he told the witness to drive around the block and come back. When the witness came back appellant had two bottles of whisky which he sold to the inspector for $5.00.
Several exceptions are to be found in the course of the taking of testimony but they are not indexed in the question and answer statement of facts, consequently are not before us for consideration. The formal bills of exception have been carefully considered and are without merit.
We find no reversible error and the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
