March 28, 19901990 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 45

Summary

The Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas reversed the Court of Appeals' judgment and affirmed the trial court's judgments, holding that the appellate court had jurisdiction, the theft indictments were not fundamentally defective, and the alleged defect was a notice issue that the appellant waived, eliminating the need for a harmless error analysis.
