State v. Lopez

Opinion of the Court

Wheeler, J.

The indictment charges the playing to have been at a “ public place,” in the words of the statute ; and that is sufficient as respects the locus in quo. (Hart. Dig. Art. 1474; Prior v. The State, 4 Tex. R. 383.) The Court therefore erred in quashing the indictment: for which the judgment must be reversed, and the case remanded for further proceedings.

Reversed and remanded.
