Florence v. State
Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
1Opinion of the Court
WOODLEY, Judge.
The conviction is for aggravated assault with a motor vehicle; the punishment, one year in jail.
Appellant complains of the overruling of his motion to quash the information. The information alleged that appellant ‘“did drive and operate a motor vehicle, to-wit: an auto - obile,” while the complaint alleged that he drove and operated “a motor vehicle, to-wit: an autmobile.”
Bad spelling will not vitiate the complaint or information if the sense is not affected and the meaning cannot be mistaken. Graham v. State, 119 Texas Cr. Rep. 14, 46 S.W. 2d 709; Murphey v. State, 109 Texas…
