Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

Kunlay Sodipo, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

September 18, 1991815 S.W.2d 551

Summary

The Court held that the trial court erred by refusing to grant the mandatory ten‑day continuance after the indictment was amended and by permitting the amendment on the day of trial; such statutory violations are not subject to a harmless‑error analysis, and the case was reversed and remanded for proper action.
