Relies on Bedell v. State · Stuart v. State

Decided 1970-03-11

¶1OPINION

ONION, Judge.

¶2The offense is driving while license suspended; the punishment, a fine of $100 and 10 days.

¶3We are confronted with the same problem that we were confronted with in Bedell v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 443 S.W.2d 850 and cases there cited. See also Stuart v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 445 S.W.2d 743.

¶4It appears from the record that the sentence was untimely and improperly pronounced. See Article 42.03, Vernon’s Ann. C.C.P. If, however, sentence was properly pronounced, then notice of appeal was not given within ten days thereafter as required by Article 44.08, V.A.C.C.P.

¶5It is clear that for either reason the appeal must be dismissed.

¶6It is so ordered.
