Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

Kenneth Elwood Narron, Jr., Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

June 24, 19921992 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 165

Summary

The Court held that the indictment sufficiently notified the State of its intent to seek a deadly weapon affirmative finding, but because no separate felony was facilitated by the possession of the shotgun, the affirmative finding of use was erroneous and was deleted; the judgment, as modified, was affirmed. Justice Overstreet filed a partial concurrence/dissent, agreeing on notice but disagreeing that the finding should be barred when possession is the gravamen of the offense.
