OPINION ON STATE’S PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW
CLINTON, Judge.
Following his plea of not guilty, a jury convicted appellant of the first degree felony offense of burglary of a habitation, as proscribed by V.T.C.A. Penal Code, § 30.02(a)(3). Punishment was assessed by the trial court at ten years confinement in the Texas Department of Corrections. The Court of Appeals for the Fourth Supreme Judicial District reversed appellant’s conviction and remanded the cause to the trial court. DeVaughn v. State, 678 S.W.2d 143 (Tex.App.—San Antonio 1984).
The State petitioned this Court for discretionary review of the holding by the court of appeals that, upon timely request for additional specificity by means of a motion to quash, an indictment for burglary which alleges that the accused attempted to commit theft and actually committed theft must provide a description of the item or items which were taken and state the name of the owner of those items. Considering this an important issue of state law which has not been, but should be, settled by this Court, we granted review. Tex.R. App.P„ Rule 200(c)(2).
The indictment in appellant’s case read, in pertinent part, as follows:
"... on or about the 7th day of August, A.D., 1982, Lemard DeVaughn did then and there intentionally and knowingly enter a habitation which is located in the [64]*64general vicinity of the 7400 block of Hidden Oak, Live Oak, Bexar County, Texas, and therein attempted to commit and committed theft, without the effective consent of Joyce Ernest, the owner of said habitation....”1
Appellant timely filed a motion to quash, which contained the following in Paragraph III:
“The defendant takes exception to the indictment in this cause in that the document fails to allege and therefore fails to inform the defendant as to the elements of theft and attempted theft in that there is no allegation of:
(a) The property which was stolen or attempted to be stolen.
(c) [sic] The owner of the stolen property or the property which was attempted to be stolen.
(d) That the said property was taken without the effective consent of the owner of the property.
(e) The manner in which such consent was not effective as to the owner of the property.
(f) That such property was appropriated by the defendant with the intent to deprive the owner of such property.
(g) The value of the property which was stolen or attempted to be stolen.
(h) That the same was committed with a culpable mental state.”
The court of appeals concluded that “certain factual elaborations sought by (appellant’s) motion to quash were information to which he was entitled upon his timely requests therefor.” DeVaughn v. State, supra at 149. Specifically, the court held that appellant was entitled to “notice as to which property was allegedly taken or attempted to be taken” and to “be given the name of the individual from whom he appropriated or attempted to appropriate the property.” Id. The court concluded that the remaining items in appellant’s motion to quash were “not matters of adequate notice and would not assist (appellant) as a bar to a subsequent prosecution of the same offense.” Id. In so doing, the court of appeals quoted extensively from this Court’s opinion on original submission in Ortega v. State, 668 S.W.2d 701 (Tex.Cr.App.1983), an opinion which the State describes in its brief in this cause as “dicta.”
The court of appeals also held that appellant was entitled to the information above under the rationale that appellant’s motion to quash “entitled him to the allegation of facts sufficient to bar a subsequent prosecution for the same offense.” DeVaughn v. State, supra at 151. The State has taken exception with these holdings in its petition for discretionary review.
I. Burglary Generally
There are three distinct ways in which one may commit the offense of burglary under the present version of the Penal Code.2 First the offense may be committed by intentionally or knowingly3 entering a building or habitation not then open to the public, without the effective consent of the owner and with the intent to commit a felony or theft. V.T.C.A. Penal Code, § 30.02(a)(1); Gonzalez v. State, 517 S.W.2d 785, 786 (Tex.Cr.App.1975). Second, one may commit burglary by intentionally or knowingly remaining concealed in a build[65]*65ing or habitation, without the effective consent of the owner, and with the intent to commit a felony or theft. V.T.C.A. Penal Code, § 30.02(a)(2); Day v. State, 532 S.W.2d 302, 305 (Tex.Cr.App.1976). Finally, one may commit burglary by intentionally and knowingly 4 entering a building or habitation, without the effective consent of the owner, and committing or attempting to commit a felony or theft. V.T.C.A. Penal Code, § 30.02(a)(3); Day v. State, supra; Davila v. State, 547 S.W.2d 606, 608 (Tex.Cr.App.1977). See also, Robles v. State, 664 S.W.2d 91, 94 (Tex.Cr.App.1984). An indictment that fails to allege at least one of these theories is fundamentally defective. Ex parte Oliver, 703 S.W.2d 205, 206 n. 1 (Tex.Cr.App.1986).
It is well settled that the intent to commit a felony or theft must exist at the moment of the entry or there is no offense under § 30.02(a)(1), supra; Lewis v. State, 715 S.W.2d 655, 656 (Tex.Cr.App.1986). It is equally settled that the offense is complete upon the entry; a completed felony or theft is unnecessary. Lewis v. State, supra at 657; Robles v. State, supra at 95 (Clinton, J., concurring). Proof of the intent to commit either theft or a felony was, and is, a necessary element in the State’s case. State v. Robertson, 32 Tex. 159 (1869); Collins v. State, 20 Tex.Crim. 197 (1886); Polk v. State, 60 Tex.Crim. 462, 132 S.W. 134 (1910); Farris v. State, 155 Tex.Crim. 261, 233 S.W.2d 856 (1950); Lowe v. State, 163 Tex.Crim. 578, 294 S.W.2d 394 (1956); Greer v. State, 437 S.W.2d 558 (Tex.Cr.App.1969); Ex parte Rogers, 519 S.W.2d 861 (Tex.Cr.App.1975). The same is true of burglary under § 30.02(a)(2), supra.
Thus, the attempted or completed theft or felony required by § 30.02(a)(3), supra, merely supplants the specific intent which accompanies entry in §§ 30.02(a)(1) and (2), supra. Indeed, the Practice Commentary accompanying § 30.02(a)(3), supra, provides in pertinent part as follows:
“Section 30.02(a)(3) includes as burglary the conduct of one who enters without effective consent but, lacking intent to commit any crime upon his entry, subsequently forms that intent and commits or attempts a felony or theft. This provision dispenses with the need to prove intent at the time of the entry when the actor is caught in the act.”
Practice Commentary, V.T.C.A. Penal Code, § 30.02, p. 144. The gravamen of the offense of burglary clearly remains entry of a building or habitation without the effective consent of the owner, accompanied by either the required mental state, under §§ 30.02(a)(1) and (2), supra, or the further requisite acts or omissions, under § 30.02(a)(3), supra.
This Court has repeatedly held that an indictment for burglary as set forth in §§ 30.02(a)(1) or (2), supra, is not fatally defective because it fails to allege the owner, value, description, nature, etc., of the property which the accused allegedly intended to steal.5 See, e.g., Ford v. State, 632 S.W.2d 151 (Tex.Cr.App.1982); Traylor v. State, 561 S.W.2d 492 (Tex.Cr.App.1978); Davila v. State, supra; Faulks v. State, 528 S.W.2d 607 (Tex.Cr.App.1975). The Court has come to the same conclusion regarding claims that failure to allege these facts in an indictment under § 30.02(a)(3), supra, constitutes fundamental error. Davila v. State, supra at 609; Roy v. State, 608 S.W.2d 645, 652 n. 7 [66]*66(Tex.Cr.App.1980). However, the Court has suggested that a different conclusion may be warranted when the issue is presented in the context of the denial of a timely submitted motion to quash.6
II. State’s Argument
The State’s primary argument7 in this Court is that appellant’s case is controlled “not by the dicta in Ortega v. State [668 5.W.2d 701 (Tex.Cr.App.1983) ], but rather by this Court’s holding in Nichols v. State, 494 S.W.2d 830 (Tex.Cr.App.1973).” Nichols v. State, supra, urged on us by the State as controlling appellant’s case, is in-apposite because Nichols involved a conviction for burglary with intent to commit theft, as opposed to burglary by entering and committing theft. As discussed above, the attempted or completed theft or felony, under § 30.02(a)(3), supra, supplants the intent to commit a felony or theft under §§ 30.02(a)(1) or (2), supra.
Additionally, the State invites us to seek guidance in this case from the law of motions to quash as it relates to the offense of robbery. The argument here is that robbery, as set forth in Y.T.C.A. Penal Code, § 29.02, is “an assaultive offense which contains an underlying element of criminal conduct; that element is, that the assault occurred while the defendant was ‘in the course of committing theft.’ ” The argument continues with the proposition that, if we adopted the State’s interpretation of the court of appeals’ opinion, an individual indicted for robbery would be entitled to notice of all of the elements of the underlying offense of theft. The State concludes its argument by noting that this Court has previously held that the elements of the underlying theft in a robbery prosecution are merely evidentiary and need not be pled, citing as authority Hightower v. State, 629 S.W.2d 920 (Tex.Cr.App.1981); Hill v. State, 668 S.W.2d 338 (Tex.Cr.App.1978); Davis v. State, 532 S.W.2d 626 (Tex.Cr.App.1976).
Finally, the State urges that the law of motions to quash as it applies to capital murder is also instructive. The State submits that, if its interpretation of the court of appeals’ holding in this case is adopted, an accused charged with capital murder during the commission of a felony would be entitled to force the State to plead the elements of that underlying felony. Citing Lamb v. State, 680 S.W.2d 11 (Tex.Cr.App.1984) and Hammett v. State, 578 S.W.2d 699 (Tex.Cr.App.1979), the State notes that this Court has expressly repudiated that reasoning. We shall return to these arguments below.
[67]*67III. Notice Generally
In all criminal prosecutions an accused is guaranteed the right to demand the nature and cause of the action against him, and to have a copy thereof. Tex. Const. Art. I, § 10. This constitutional mandate requires that the charging instrument itself convey adequate notice from which the accused may prepare his defense, and the adequacy of the State’s allegation must be tested by its own terms. Adams v. State, 707 S.W.2d 900, 901 (Tex.Cr.App.1986), citing, Voelkel v. State, 501 S.W.2d 313 (Tex.Cr.App.1973). Subject to rare exceptions, an indictment which tracks the language of the penal statute will be legally sufficient and the State need not allege facts which are merely evidentiary in nature. Moreno v. State, 721 S.W.2d 295 (Tex.Cr.App.1986); Beck v. State, 682 S.W.2d 550 (Tex.Cr.App.1985). The indictment will be read as a whole in determining whether it sufficiently charges an offense. Dennis v. State, 647 S.W.2d 275, 279 (Tex.Cr.App.1983); Church v. State, 552 S.W.2d 138, 140 (Tex.Cr.App.1977).
A motion to quash should be granted only where the language concerning the defendant’s conduct is so vague or indefinite as to deny the defendant effective notice of the acts he allegedly committed. Thomas v. State, 621 S.W.2d 158, 163 (Tex.Cr.App.1981); Lindsay v. State, 588 S.W.2d 570 (Tex.Cr.App.1979); Cruise v. State, 587 S.W.2d 403 (Tex.Cr.App.1979); Haecker v. State, 571 S.W.2d 920 (Tex.Cr.App.1978); Amaya v. State, 551 S.W.2d 385 (Tex.Cr.App.1977). In the face of timely motion to quash an indictment, the indictment must allege on its face the facts necessary to show that the offense was committed, to bar a subsequent prosecution for the same offense, and to give the defendant notice of precisely what he is charged with. American Plant Food v. State, 508 S.W.2d 598, 603 (Tex.Cr.App.1974), citing, Terry v. State, 471 S.W.2d 848, 852 (Tex.Cr.App.1971). Where the accused has raised the claim of inadequate notice by means of a timely motion to quash, this Court has held:
“The general rule is that a motion to quash will be allowed if the facts sought are essential to give notice. However, unless a fact is essential, the indictment need not plead evidence relied on by the State. Smith v. State, 502 S.W.2d 133 (Tex.Cr.App.1973); Cameron v. State, 401 S.W.2d 809 (Tex.Cr.App.1966). Moreover, when a term is defined in the statutes, it need not be further alleged in the indictment. American Plant Food Corporation v. State, 508 S.W.2d 598 (Tex.Cr.App.1974); May v. State, 618 S.W.2d 333 (Tex.Cr.App.1981).” (Emphasis in original)
Thomas v. State, supra at 161 (Opinion on State’s Motion for Rehearing).
It is improper to look to the record of the case in order to determine whether the allegation in the charging instrument constitutes adequate notice; the information upon which the accused prepares his defense must come from the face of the charging instrument itself. Adams v. State, supra at 901; Bonner v. State, 640 S.W.2d 601 (Tex.Cr.App.1982).
In Adams, we indicated that claims of inadequate notice should be addressed as follows:
“The important question is whether a defendant had notice adequate to prepare his defense. The first step in answering this question is to decide whether the charging instrument failed to convey some requisite item of “notice”. If sufficient notice is given, this ends our inquiry. If not, the next step is to decide whether, in the context of the case, this had an impact on the defendant’s ability to prepare a defense, and, finally, how great an impact.”
Adams v. State, supra at 903. It is to that “first step” we now turn.
If an indictment contains allegations regarding all the necessary elements of the offense, so that it is not fundamentally defective and void, and if a defendant requests additional factual information upon which to prepare a defense, a defect of form has been raised and the State may properly amend the indictment to reflect the requested information. Janecka v. State, 739 S.W.2d 813, 819 (Tex.Cr.App. [68]*681987), overruling in part Brasfield v. State, 600 S.W.2d 288 (Tex.Cr.App.1980) (Opinion on State’s Motion for Rehearing). See also Brasfield v. State, supra at 303 (Clinton, J., dissenting on State’s Motion for Rehearing). In the instant case, appellant timely filed a motion to quash the indictment, as set forth in pertinent part above, and there was no amendment made to the indictment by the State. Thus, the issue becomes whether the indictment on its face fails to convey some requisite item of notice. The notice provided by the indictment in question must be examined from the perspective of the accused in light of his constitutional presumption of innocence. King v. State, 594 S.W.2d 425, 426 (Tex.Cr.App.1980); Cruise v. State, 587 S.W.2d 403 (Tex.Cr.App.1979); Drumm v. State, 560 S.W.2d 944 (Tex.Cr.App.1977).
Although cursory examination of our pri- or treatment of claims alleging insufficient notice from the face of an indictment may give the impression of inconsistency, a closer analysis reveals that such cases are divisible into categories contingent upon a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the statutory description of the prohibited conduct and whether the notice deficiency complained of describes an act or omission by the accused.
IV. Notice as to Appellant
Generally, the State need not plead with additional specificity those matters which are statutorily defined in the alternative where the matter is not an act or omission of the defendant. See, e.g., Allison v. State, 618 S.W.2d 763 (Tex.Cr.App.1981) (failure to specify “owner” or “effective consent” did not deny notice); Linville v. State, 620 S.W.2d 130 (Tex.Cr.App.1981) (robbery indictment need not further define “in the course of committing theft,” although V.T.C.A. Penal Code, § 29.01(1) provides four situations which might render the robbery in the course of committing theft); Hall v. State, 640 S.W.2d 307 (Tex.Cr.App.1982) (attempted murder indictment may allege only “with intent to commit murder” without further addressing the variety of acts which might constitute murder under V.T.C.A. Penal Code, § 19.02). See also, Dix, Texas Charging Instrument Law: Recent Developments and the Continuing Need for Reform, 35 Baylor L.Rev. 689, 767-75 (1983).
In Terry v. State, 471 S.W.2d 848 (Tex.Cr.App.1971), Oranza Terry had been convicted of placing and causing to be placed on individual packages of cigarettes a counterfeit cigarette tax stamp. After concluding that the State need not follow the in haec verba rules then applicable to forgery, swindling and similar cases in which the contents of the instrument and their construction served as the very basis of the prosecution, the Court considered the notice provided from the face of the indictment and found it insufficient because:
“Not only is there no definition of such a stamp present, there is no description of the stamp in question. There is nothing in this indictment to inform the accused of the specific acts he is alleged to have committed to commit this offense. It is only by speculation and by looking outside the indictment that the accused can determine the acts with which he is charged.
******
In the instant indictment there are no explanatory averments of any type or being and therefore insufficient pleadings are presented.”
Terry v. State, supra at 851-52. See also American Plant Food v. State, supra at 603-04.
In Drumm v. State, 560 S.W.2d 944 (Tex.Cr.App.1977), an appeal from a conviction for driving with a suspended license, under V.A.C.S., Art. 6687b, §§ 24, 34, the Court cited American Plant Food v. State, supra, and concluded that appellant’s timely motion to quash the information entitled him to notice as to exactly which of several offenses set forth in the statute he had violated. Of particular interest is Judge Odom’s statement as to the basis for requiring the State to provide specificity beyond that needed to set forth an offense, following the timely filing of a motion to quash by the accused.
[69]*69“In the face of the constitutional presumption of innocence to which every accused is entitled, it cannot be claimed by the state, when there is a motion to quash on these grounds, that appellant knew the grounds for the suspension of his license. There may exist several such grounds for suspension, and there may exist various defenses to some or all of those grounds. It is not for us to speculate on possible defenses; those are for the accused and counsel to investigate, prepare, and establish if they can. In order to perform that duty, however, the accused is entitled to notice of the particular cause for suspension upon which the State will rely. The accused is not required to anticipate any and all variant facts the State might hypothetically seek to establish. When the defendant petitions for sufficient notice of the state’s charge by motion to quash adequately setting out the manner in which notice is deficient, the presumption of innocence coupled with his right to notice requires that he be given such notice. Appellant here was entitled to such notice and his motion to quash was sufficient to point out his need. The motion to quash should have been granted.”
Drumm v. State, supra at 947.
This Court has repeatedly held that an indictment or information which tracks the language of the statute which defines the act constituting the offense is sufficient to convey adequate notice to an accused only where the language of the statute is itself completely descriptive of the offense. In cases where the statutory language is not completely descriptive of the offense, then additional specificity will be required in the face of a timely motion to quash. See, e.g., Haecker v. State, 571 S.W.2d 920 (Tex.Cr.App.1978) (“torture an animal” insufficient to give appellant adequate notice and enable him to prepare a defense).
Although the term “delivery” is defined by statute, we have held that because the statute provides three different and distinct ways of establishing the accused’s criminal conduct, the State must further specify the acts or omissions of the accused upon which it will rely when such further specification is requested by means of a timely motion to quash. Ferguson v. State, 622 S.W.2d 846, 850-51 (Tex.Cr.App.1981) (Opinion on State’s Motion for Rehearing). Judge W.C. Davis, writing for the majority in Ferguson, supra, noted that, unlike the term “owner” in Thomas v. State, supra, the term “delivery” goes to the very essence of the State’s case, and the type of delivery which the State intended to prove would be critical to the defendant’s preparation of a defense. Ferguson v. State, supra at 850. After reviewing numerous cases addressing adequacy of notice provided by an indictment, he concluded:
“From these cases, it is clear that even though an act or omission by a defendant is statutorily defined, if that definition provides for more than one manner or means to commit that act or omission, then upon timely request, the State must allege the particular manner or means it seeks to establish.”
Id. at 851.
The State is correct in its assertion that, as a general proposition, an indictment alleging an aggravated offense need not set forth all of the elements of the underlying, or aggravating offense. Thus, an individual indicted for robbery is not entitled to notice as to the elements of the underlying theft. Hightower v. State, supra; Hill v. State, supra; Davis v. State, supra. Similarly, an individual indicted for capital murder committed during the commission of a felony is not entitled to notice as to the elements of the underlying felony. Lamb v. State, supra; Hammett v. State, supra.
However, when a statute proscribes conduct constituting an aggravated feature of the offense, and when that aggravated conduct may be directed at a person other than the ultimate victim of the crime alleged, the specification of that person is not an essential element of the underlying offense, but rather a fact necessary to provide notice, to which the accused is entitled, should he request it by means of a timely [70]*70filed motion to quash. King v. State, supra at 426. Accord Goss v. State, 580 S.W.2d 587 (Tex.Cr.App.1979); Brem v. State, 571 S.W.2d 314 (Tex.Cr.App.1978); Childs v. State, 547 S.W.2d 613 (Tex.Cr.App.1977).
Thus, this Court has held that, although the State need not allege the elements of the aggravating offense committed or attempted during the course of which a capital murder occurs, it is still necessary to allege the name of the victim or intended victim thereof where the accused has timely requested such information through a motion to quash the indictment. King v. State, supra at 426; Brasfield v. State, 600 S.W.2d 288 (Tex.Cr.App.1980); Evans v. State, 601 S.W.2d 943, 947 (Tex.Cr.App.1980); Silguero v. State, 608 S.W.2d 619, 620 (Tex.Cr.App.1980); Pinkerton v. State, 660 S.W.2d 58, 63 (Tex.Cr.App.1983). A similar result has been reached with respect to the name of the person supplying the remuneration in a “murder for hire” capital murder prosecution. Janecka v. State, 739 S.W.2d 813, 820 (Tex.Cr.App.1987). The following remarks by the King Court are particularly relevant to appellant’s case:
“It is clear that when the criminal conduct constituting an aggravated feature of an offense may be directed at a person other than the ultimate victim of the crime alleged, the specification of that person is a fact to which the accused is entitled should he request it by timely filed written motion to quash.”
King v. State, supra at 426. See also Brasfield v. State, supra at 294; Pinkerton v. State, supra at 63.
Having alleged that appellant entered the described premises, attempted to commit and did commit theft, the State was not obligated to allege in the indictment the elements of the underlying theft. However, the State was clearly obligated to prove an attempted or a completed theft, based upon these allegations. It is inconceivable that the State could succeed in this undertaking without proving from whom appellant had taken or attempted to take property. However, it is by no means a necessary conclusion that appellant took or attempted to take property from the owner of the premises he was alleged to have entered unlawfully. Thus, once appellant requested the name of the individual from whom he allegedly took property or attempted to take property during a burglary, his constitutional presumption of innocence, coupled with our prior holding in King v. State, supra, and its progeny, mandate that the State provide such information crucial to appellant’s defense. Accordingly, we hold that, by virtue of his timely written motion to quash the indictment, appellant was entitled to have the State specify the name of the individual from whom property was taken or attempted to be taken.
As to the State’s invitation to analogize appellant’s case to the law of motions to quash as it applies to prosecutions for capital murder, we have already noted that, in capital murder prosecutions, when criminal conduct constituting the aggravating feature of the offense may be directed at a person other than the ultimate victim of the capital murder, the failure to allege the name of the person at whom the aggravating conduct is directed has been held a fact which is crucial to the accused’s preparation of a defense to the main charge of capital murder. King v. State, supra; Brasfield v. State, supra; Evans v. State, supra; Silguero v. State, supra; Pinkerton v. State, supra; Woolls v. State, 665 S.W.2d 455 (Tex.Cr.App.1983). This holding has been modified by later cases only to the extent that now, once we conclude there was error in denying a timely motion to quash, we continue the analysis to ascertain whether, in the context of the particular case, this failure had an impact on the accused’s ability to prepare a defense, and finally, how great an impact. Adams v. State, supra; Rougeau v. State, 738 S.W.2d 651 (Tex.Cr.App.1987); Janecka v. State, supra.
As to the State’s invitation to analogize the instant case to those involving aggravated robbery, as that offense is prescribed in [71]*71V.T.C.A. Penal Code, § 29.02,8 we note that aggravated robbery is defined as being, to quote the State’s brief, “an assaultive offense which contains an underlying element of criminal conduct; that element is, that the assault occurred while the defendant was ‘in the course of committing theft.’ ” The phrase “in the course of committing” is in turn defined as:
“conduct that occurs in an attempt to commit, during the commission, or in immediate flight after the attempt or commission of theft.”
V.T.C.A. Penal Code, § 29.01(1). The State is, of course, correct in that all of the elements of the underlying theft need not be alleged in the indictment, even in the face of timely filed motion to quash.
However, the State overlooks the distinction drawn above with respect to the function which the attempted or completed theft or felony serves in prosecutions under § 30.02(a)(3), supra; viz., the attempted or completed theft or felony in prosecutions under § 30.02(a)(3), supra, supplants the requisite mental state under prosecutions under §§ 30.02(a)(1) or (2), supra. We have long held that the intent in a robbery prosecution under §§ 30.02(a)(1) or (2), supra, or their precursors under earlier penal codes, must be expressly averred. Ex parte Oliver, 703 S.W.2d 205 (Tex.Cr.App.1986); Davila v. State, 547 S.W.2d 606 (Tex.Cr.App.1977); Ex parte Cannon, 546 S.W.2d 266 (Tex.Cr.App.1976); Lowe v. State, 163 Tex.Crim. 578, 294 S.W.2d 394 (1956); Hammons v. State, 29 Tex.Crim. 445, 16 S.W. 99 (1891); West v. State, 35 Tex. 89 (1872). Under the rationale of King v. State, supra, Ferguson v. State, supra, and their progeny, we now hold that in prosecutions for burglary under § 30.02(a)(3), supra, alleging the attempt to commit theft and an actual completed theft, the State must, upon request therefor through timely filed written motion to quash the indictment, provide a description of the property allegedly stolen or attempted to be stolen, and also the name of the owner, if known.
In appellant’s case, this omission was called to the trial court’s attention through appellant’s timely filed written motion to quash the indictment. It was error for the trial court to overrule that motion. Thus, the first prong of the test set forth in Adams v. State, supra, is satisfied.9 The next step is to decide, in the context of the case, whether this had an impact on appellant’s ability to prepare a defense, and finally, how great an impact. Adams v. State, supra at 903. In accordance with the Court’s holding in Adams, supra, the proper procedure in such a case is for this Court to remand the cause to the court of appeals for an analysis of the record as a whole to ascertain the impact, if any, upon appellant’s ability to prepare his defense occasioned by the trial court’s error.
Accordingly, the judgment of the court of appeals is vacated and the cause is remanded to that court for further proceedings not inconsistent with this opinion.
ONION, P.J., and McCORMICK, J., dissent.
