WILLIAMS v. STATE

No. 09-89-101 CR.

787 S.W.2d 181 (1990)

Kennedy Wayne WILLIAMS, Appellant, v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee.

Court of Appeals of Texas, Beaumont.

March 21, 1990.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Tom Brown, Pace & Brown, Livingston, for appellant.

Terry Brown, Dist. Atty., Livingston, for State.

OPINION

BURGESS, Justice.

A jury found appellant guilty of burglary of a habitation and assessed punishment at forty-five years' confinement in the Texas Department of Corrections and a $5,000 fine. The sole point of error contends appellant's written custodial statement was obtained as the result of an illegal arrest and was thus inadmissible.

The arrest warrant fails to state that appellant is the person accused of the offense.
