THOMPSON v. STATE

No. 29999.

317 S.W.2d 61 (1958)

Charley A. THOMPSON, Appellant, v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee.

Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.

October 22, 1958.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

No attorney on appeal for appellant.

Leon B. Douglas, State's Atty., Austin, for the State.


BELCHER, Commissioner.

The conviction is for driving while intoxicated; the punishment, 5 days in jail and a fine of $100.

The record shows that appellant gave notice of appeal to this court on the day of his conviction; and it further shows that he filed an appeal bond on the same day.

Hence appellant has, during the term at which he was convicted, entered into an appeal bond instead of a recognizance as is required by law.
