OPINION

WOODLEY, Presiding Judge.

The offense is the unlawful possession ‍​​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‍of marihuana, a narcotic drug; the punishment, 4 years, probated.

Appellant was jointly charged and tried with his co-defendant ‍​​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‍Michael Nus, Jr., and presents the same ground for reversal which we overruled in Nus v. State, Tex. ‍​​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‍Cr.App. 440 S.W.2d 310, this day decided.
