7 S.W.2d 551 | Tex. Crim. App. | 1928
Conviction is for passing a forged instrument, punishment being two years in the penitentiary. Some suggestion *115 is found in appellant's brief that evidence was received which was not properly admissible. No bills of exception are brought forward making complaint to that effect; in fact no exceptions of any kind are found in the record. The only question which this court can review is whether the evidence is sufficient. Appellant endorsed and passed a check for $3.00 drawn on a Port Arthur bank which purported to be signed by Exavia LeBlanc. Appellant claimed to have known such a party and to have received the check from him. Other witnesses testified that there were many LeBlancs in Port Arthur but none of the name appearing on the check so far as they knew or could ascertain. A number of checks admitted by appellant to have been written and signed by him were produced and an employee of the bank testified that in his opinion the alleged forged check and the endorsement admittedly placed thereon by appellant were in the same hand writing, and that the admitted checks written by appellant were in the same hand writing as the forged check and the endorsement thereon. The evidence appears quite sufficient to support the verdict.
The judgment is affirmed.
Affirmed.
Finding no error in the record, the motion for rehearing is overruled.
Overruled. *116
