Meggs v. State

MORROW, Presiding Judge.

The appellant was adjudged a delinquent child and was committed to the Boys’ Training ’School, at Gatesville, Texas, for a period of five years.

The complaint contains two counts. The first reads thus: That the said Johnie Meg'gs was then and there and is incorrigible.” This count is not sufficiently specific to sustain the conviction in that it is bare of averments susceptible of proof describing the conduct rendering the appellant incorrigible. See Hogue v. State, 87 Texas Crim. Rep. 171; Guerrero v. State, 87 Tex. Crim. Rep. 260; Ex parte Roach, 87 Tex. Crim. Rep.…
