Lynch v. State

GRAVES, Judge.

Appellant was charged with a violation of the liquor laws and by the jury assessed a fine of $100.00 and six months in jail. Hence his appeal.

The facts show that appellant rented a certain building in Abilene, described as No. 2262 South Fourteenth Street, from Mrs. S. C. Oates, to whom he paid the rent therefor. The contract was for the period of one year beginning in November, 1945, and appellant, under his contract, could not sub-rent the *237building. Mrs. Oates was told by appellant that he wanted to use the building for a termite exterminator office.
