CLARK V. STATE
159 Tex. Cr. R. 187, 261 S.W.2d 339 (1953)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was an appeal from a conviction for murder. Clark (D) appealed
from the dismissal of his original motion for rehearing, claiming various errors occurred
during his criminal trial.
FACTS: Clark's (D) wife was found murdered, right after they got divorced. She was killed
by the same type of gun that D owned. There was evidence given at trial by a telephone
operator. She testified about a telephone call between D and his attorney on the night of
the murder. The operator testified that she heard D admit that he had killed his wife. She
admitted that she had eavesdropped on the conversation. D was convicted of murder. D
appealed, claiming that Bartz' testimony should not have been allowed into evidence because
it violated his attorney-client privilege.
