Edwin Dale ADDISON, Appellant, v. the STATE of Texas, Appellee
MORRISON, Presiding Judge.
The offense is aggravated assault; the punishment, 30 days in jail.
Our State’s Attorney confesses that the complaint will not support the informa *56 tion. The complaint charges that Amando Hinojosa committed the assault while the information charges that Edwin Dale Addison assaulted the injured party.
A valid complaint is a prerequisite to a valid information. Byrom v. State, 158 Tex.Cr.R. 427, 256 S.W.2d 853. Without a complaint, the County Court has no jurisdiction. McQueen v. State, 135 Tex.Cr.R. 74, 117 S.W.2d 79.
The judgment is reversed and the prosecution ordered dismissed.
