David J. Pollan, Jr., Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Court affirmed the conviction for possession of more than four ounces of marihuana, holding that the State proved the appellant's control and knowledge of the contraband, that the indictment was not defective, and that the ineffective‑assistance claim lacked evidentiary support. Justice Teague dissented, arguing the evidence was insufficient to establish possession and that the majority relied on speculation.
