Kennon v. State
7 Tex. Ct. App. 326
Opinion
The record before us fails to disclose that the jury empanelled to try this cause were sworn. Without this the conviction cannot stand. Other errors have not been considered ; but, for the reason that it does not appear that the jury were sworn, or acted under the sanction of an oath in their finding, the judgment is reversed, and the case ordered to be remanded for a new trial.
Reversed and remanded.
