¶1OPINION
¶2In a trial before the court, appellant was convicted of driving while license suspended. Punishment was assessed at a fine of one hundred dollars and seventy-two hours in jail.
¶3Among other contentions, appellant argues that there is no evidence that he is the Gregorio Gonzales, Jr. whose driver’s license was shown to have been suspended.
¶4The record reflects that on September 27, 1974, in Victoria, Officer Leon Perkins of *802the Victoria Police Department stopped appellant while he was driving an automobile in order to check his driver’s license. Appellant handed him a license made out to Gregorio Gonzales which had expired. Perkins testified: “I run a records’ check on the driver’s license in Austin by teletype and our dispatcher, to check if the driver’s license were indeed expired or what the disposition of the driver’s license was.”
¶5No further testimony was given concerning this expired driver’s license.
¶6The State next placed in evidence as its Exhibit 1 a certificate from the License Issuance and Driver Records Division of the Texas Department of Public Safety dated February 27, 1975. This certificate reflected that the “Texas driving privilege” of one Gregorio Gonzales, Jr. of Route 5, Box 415, Victoria, Texas, was at the time of its issuance and at the time of this alleged offense suspended because of his failure to post the required financial responsibility as required by Art. 6701h, Sec. 17, V.A.T.Civ. Stats.
¶7Appellant did not testify and offered no evidence.
¶8At the close of the trial appellant moved for judgment of acquittal since there was no evidence that he was the same person whose license had been suspended. This motion was overruled, and the court found him guilty of driving while his license was suspended as charged in the information.
¶9The information on which appellant was convicted charged that on September 27, 1974, in Victoria County, Gregorio Garcia Gonzales did
“ . . drive and operate an automobile upon the public highway there situate, while the Texas operator’s license of the said Gregorio Garcia Gonzales was then and there suspended under Article 6701h, Sec. 5(b) of Vernon’s Annotated Civil Statutes.”
¶10While the evidence may have been sufficient to show that appellant was driving with an expired driver’s license, there was no evidence to identify him as the “Gregorio Gonzales, Jr.” named in the certificate whose “Texas driving privilege” was under suspension. See Elizalde v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 507 S.W.2d 749, 752.
¶11The burden was upon the State to prove that this appellant was operating an automobile while his, appellant’s driving license was suspended. The State made no attempt to offer any such proof.
¶12The judgment is reversed and the cause is remanded.
¶13Opinion approved by the Court.
