LEAVELLE FRANKLIN, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 102nd District Court Bowie County, Texas
Trial Court No. 13F1054-102
Before Morriss, C.J., Moseley and Carter, JJ.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Jack Carter, Justice, Retired, Sitting by Assignment
Leavelle Franklin appeals from his convictions of three counts of aggravated sexual assault of his six-year-old daughter, Barbara Johnson (pseudonym), with two previous felony convictions. Franklin has filed a single brief in which he raises issues common to all of his appeals. Franklin argues that the trial court committed reversible error (1) in admitting a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner's reports over his hearsay objection, (2) in limiting cross-examination of the forensic interviewer, which was designed to uncover inconsistencies in Barbara's and Tasha's statements, (3) in exempting the Child Advocacy Center's clinical director from the witness sequestration rule, and (4) by overruling his objection to comments made during the State's closing argument.
In our case number 06-14-00046-CR, Franklin also appeals from his convictions of three counts of aggravated sexual assault of his seven-year-old daughter, Tasha Johnson (pseudonym), with two previous felony convictions.
--------
We addressed these issues in detail in our opinion of this date on Franklin's appeal in cause number 06-14-00046-CR. For the reasons stated therein, we likewise conclude that harmful error has not been shown in this case.
We affirm the trial court's judgment.
