Reese v. State
141 S.W.2d 949, 139 Tex. Crim. 593, 1940 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 443
Opinions
The appeal is from a conviction in the District Court of Comanche County on a charge of perjury. The penalty is two years in the State penitentiary.
The indictment returned in the case is fatally defective in that it does not conclude, “against the peace and dignity of the State,” as required by statute.
The case is reversed and the prosecution ordered dismissed.
