State v. Davidson

36 Tex. 325 | Tex. | 1872

Ogden, J.

There is no error in the judgment of the Distriet Court in quashing the indictment. The defendants are charged with the commission of an offense some ten months after the indictment was found. This may have been a clerical error in drawing the indictment, but the error, if such, occurred in the material portion of the charge, and is therefore fatal to the indictment, which could not have been amended in that particular.

The judgment of the District Court is affirmed.

Affirmed.
