Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

James Daniel Human, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

March 16, 19881988 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 48

Summary

The Court of Criminal Appeals reversed the Court of Appeals and affirmed the trial court, holding that the circumstantial evidence—including fingerprint expert testimony and business records—was sufficient to prove appellant James Daniel Human was the same person convicted in the two prior felony driving‑while‑intoxicated offenses, and that minor discrepancies in cause numbers did not constitute a fatal variance. The Court also affirmed the admissibility of the exhibits under the business‑records exception.
