Pew v. State

241 S.W. 1023, 1922 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 760

Opinion

HAWKINS, J.

Upon conviction for murder, punishment was fixed at 15 years’ confinement in the penitentiary.

The record contains no statement of facts or bill of exceptions. Several special charges were requested and refused. There is no way whereby we may know the relevancy, or otherwise, of the requested charges, in the absence of the evidence. In the condition of the record, we must presume the action of the trial judge in refusing them was authorized.

The judgment is affirmed.
