James PROCELL, Appellant, v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee.

Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.

April 18, 1962.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Marion G. Holt, Nacogdoches, for appellant.

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


WOODLEY, Presiding Judge.

The offense is the unlawful sale of beer in a dry area; the punishment, 30 days in jail and a fine of $250.

The information alleges that the sale was made in Nacogdoches County, a dry area.

The state concedes that there is no proof that said County was a dry area, without which the conviction cannot stand. Hargiss v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 339 S.W.2d 538
