Blake v. State

DAVIDSON, Judge.

This is a forgery case; the punishment, two years in the State penitentiary.

Appellant attacks the sufficiency of the count in the indictment upon which the conviction is predicated as being vague, indefinite and ambiguous. With this contention we are not in accord. The instrument set forth therein was the subject of forgery. It was an ordinary commercial instrument, purporting to be a receipt for money paid. Chimene v. State, 106 S. W. (2d) 692, 133 Tex. Cr.
