Description

These are appeals from convictions for gambling promotion. On original submission the judgments were reversed and the indictments were ordered dismissed because the trial court erroneously overruled the motions to quash the indictments for failure to specify the "manner or means" whereby appellant received a bet and offer to bet in each case. We granted leave to file the States motion for rehearing in order to examine the applicability of Craven v. State, 613 S.W.2d 488, in view of the fact that no statement of facts from the hearing on the motion is in the record. We conclude that Craven v. State, to the extent it created a test for determining the merits of a motion to quash that requires a statement of facts is not sound law and should be overruled.
