MOORE v. STATE

No. 26186.

254 S.W.2d 520 (1953)

MOORE v. STATE.

Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.

February 4, 1953.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

J. D. Crow, Canadian, Don Cain, Curtis Douglass, Pampa, for appellant.

George P. Blackburn, State's Atty., Austin, for the State.


WOODLEY, Judge.

The conviction is for driving while intoxicated; the punishment a fine of $400.

The state's proof is sufficient to show that appellant was intoxicated and that his automobile struck a culvert on its left hand side of the highway leading from Pampa to Miami. Proof that appellant drove his automobile while he was so intoxicated rests upon circumstances alone, and the jury was charged on the law of circumstantial evidence.
