Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

Decided March 28, 1934No. 16522Published

The opinion states the case.

1Opinion

Appellant renews his contention that the affidavit upon which the search warrant issued was insufficient in not naming or describing the party whose premises were to be searched. It was stated in the affidavit that the name of the person in control of the property was unknown to the affiants and that "further description and identity" were unknown. In support of our holding that the affidavit was good we cite the following additional authorities. Anderson v. State, 114 Tex. Crim. 448,25 S.W.2d 839; Elms v. State, 114 Tex. Crim. 642,26 S.W.2d 211; Northam v. State,66 S.W.2d 692.
