Lee v. State

100 S.W. 156, 50 Tex. Crim. 643, 1907 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 40

Opinion

BROOKS, Judge.

Appellant was convicted for violating the Sunday law by working on Sunday, and his punishment assessed at a fine of $10.

There is but one question in this record we deem necessary to review; that is the sufficiency of the evidence. The facts show conclusively, and it is practically conceded by appellant that he did engage in farm work on Sunday. It was not a work of necessity which would exempt appellant from the terms of the statute, or at least the evidence amply supports the converse conclusion. Being a question of fact, the evidence supporting the State’s insistence, the judgment is affirmed.

Affirmed.
