OPINION

LAURA CARTER HIGLEY, Justice.

Appellant, Philip Mungin, pleaded nolo contendere to the misdemeanor offense of aggregate theft of more than $50.00 and less than $500.00. The trial court accepted the plea and assessed punishment at four days’ confinement in the Harris County Jail. In his sole issue, appellant contends the trial court erred by denying appellant’s motion to quash the information because it fails to (1) charge a penal offense in plain and intelligible words, (2) charge a penal offense under Texas law, and (3) allege the specific intent necessary for theft.

We affirm.
