JIMMY DON MATTHEWS, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee


On Appeal from the 102nd District Court

Bowie County, Texas

Trial Court No. 12-F-584-102


Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ.

Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Morriss

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Jimmy Don Matthews appeals from his conviction by the trial court for criminal mischief resulting in damages of $1,500.00 or more but less than $20,000.00, and sentence of one year in state jail. Matthews has filed a single brief, in which he raises issues common to all of his appeals. He argues that the trial court erred: (1) in failing to instruct the jury to disregard testimony of a witness speaking to Matthews' prior bad acts and extraneous offenses and (2) in failing to grant a motion for mistrial "based on the State's willful violation of the trial court's ruling on Defendant's Motion for Discovery."

Matthews also appeals from a conviction of criminal mischief resulting in damage of $20,000.00 or more but less than $100,000.00 in our cause number 06-12-00179-CR.

We addressed these issues in detail in our opinion of this date on Matthews' appeal in cause number 06-12-00179-CR. For the reasons stated therein, we likewise conclude that error has not been shown in this case.

We affirm the trial court's judgment.
