Nancy SCHUSTER, Appellant,
v.
The STATE of Texas, Appellee.
No. 42584.
Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
February 11, 1970.Milton H. Mulitz, Houston, for appellant.
Carol S. Vance, Dist. Atty., James C. Brough and Rodman E. Gorman, Asst. Dist. Attys., Houston, and Jim D. Vollers, State's Atty., Austin, for the State.
OPINION
ONION, Judge.
The conviction is for violation of Article 476, Vernon's Ann.P.C.,[1] with punishment assessed at a fine of $200.00.
In her sole ground of error appellant challenges the constitutionality of Article 476, supra.
In Alobaidi v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 433 S.W.2d 440, this Court in an opinion by Presiding Judge Woodley upheld the constitutionality of said statute. We adhere to that decision. See also LeBlanc v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 441 S.W.2d 847. As we view it, such statute is not violative of the First Amendment, United States Constitution or Article I, Sec. 8, Texas Constitution, Vernon's Ann.St.
The judgment is affirmed.
