— The offense is operating and driving an automobile while intoxicated on the streets of an incorporated city; the punishment, a fine of $50.
The record is before us without a statement of facts. There is only one bill of exception in the record which shows that appellant timely objected to the third paragraph of the court’s charge, which paragraph is as follows: “If from the evidence you have a reasonable doubt as to whether the defendant was intoxicated at the time and place in question ; or if you have a reasonable doubt as to whether the defendant. drove and operated his automobile at the time and place in question; or if you have a reasonable doubt as to whether the place in question was within the corporate limits of an incorporated town, you will find the defendant not guilty.”
Appellant objected to all of said paragraph 3 because (a) said paragraph as a whole, and each portion of same, places upon the defendant the burden of proof to raise a reasonable doubt as to his guilt of the offense
Finding no reversible error in the record, the judgment is affirmed.
Affirmed.
The foregoing opinion of the Commission of Appeals has been examined by the Judges of the Court of Criminal Appeals and approved by the Court.
