    Vernice G. Hobbs v. State

    January 10, 1962
    No attorney for appellant of record on appeal.
    
      Frank Briscoe, District Attorney, Samuel H. Robertson, Jr., Wells Stewart, Assistants District Attorney, Houston, and Leon Douglas, State’s Attorney, Austin, for the state.
   McDonald, judge.

The offense is felony theft; the punishment, enhanced under Article 63, V.A.P.C., by three prior convictions for felonies less than capital, life imprisonment.

The State has confessed error in this case. We agree that the cause must be reversed.

In the absence of any evidence to support the allegation that each succeeding offense was committed after the judgment of conviction had become final in each prior conviction alleged for enhancement, the evidence is insufficient to sustain this conviction. Rogers v. State, 169 Tex. Cr. Rep. 239, 333 S.W. 2d 383; Guilliams v. State, 261 S.W. 2d 598; also see (first Rogers case) Rogers v. State, 325 S.W. 2d 697.

The judgment is reversed and the cause remanded.
