McPherson v. State

Court of Appeals of Texas·Decided January 27, 1886·No. No. 1924·Published

Opinion

Willson, Judge.

This conviction must be set aside, and the prosecution must be dismissed because the indictment is fatally defective. It does not allege that the property was fraudulently taken. (Ware v. The State, 19 Texas Ct. App., 13; Spain v. The State, id., 469; Sloan v. The State, 18 Texas Ct. App., 225.)

The judgment is reversed and the prosecution dismissed.

Reversed and dismissed.
