Martin Luther Adams, Jr., Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas affirmed the lower court's judgment, holding that the information's failure to specify which of two substantially identical films was alleged obscene did not prejudice the appellant's substantial rights, and therefore the conviction stands. The majority also overruled the Jeffers decision and reaffirmed the Craven approach of reviewing prejudice after a notice defect is found.
