734 S.W.2d 112 (1987)

Richard Earl THORNTON, Appellant, v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee.

Court of Appeals of Texas, Houston (1st Dist.).

Discretionary Review Refused October 21, 1987.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Paul Tatum, Holt & Tatum, Nacogdoches, for Thornton.

John B. Holmes, Jr., Harris County Dist. Atty., Houston, Kathlyn Giannaula, Harris County Asst. Dist. Atty., Houston, for State.

Before JACK SMITH, DUNN and SAM BASS, JJ.

OPINION

DUNN, Justice.

The appellant pled no contest to the charge of aggravated sexual assault of a child. After hearing evidence, the court found the appellant guilty and sentenced him to 10 years confinement.

In point of error one, the appellant argues that the indictment fails to allege all the necessary elements of the offense and is, therefore, fundamentally defective. This argument is without merit.
