Ward v. State

3 Citing cases

  1. Barrera v. State

    756 S.W.2d 884 (Tex. App. 1988)   Cited 6 times
    In Barrera, the San Antonio Court of Appeals considered a jury charge containing language that is identical, other than the names of the accomplices, to that which was included in the jury charges in the present case and which is set forth above.

    Thus, according to appellant, the jury was authorized to convict appellant under a theory not included in the indictment. For supporting authority, appellant relies upon Jeffcoat v. State, 644 S.W.2d 719 (Tex.Crim.App. 1982); Ward v. State, 615 S.W.2d 752 (Tex.Crim.App. 1981); Infante v. State, 612 S.W.2d 603 (Tex.Crim.App. 1981); Young v. State, 605 S.W.2d 550 (Tex.Crim.App. 1980); and Garcia v. State, 574 S.W.2d 133 (Tex.Crim.App. 1978). We note initially that the defendant was not charged with capital murder in any of the cases relied upon by appellant.

  2. Gallegos v. State

    715 S.W.2d 139 (Tex. App. 1986)   Cited 2 times

    Appellant cites numerous cases holding that a trial court commits reversible error by submitting a charge allowing conviction of murder on a finding that the accused caused death by committing an act clearly dangerous to human life when the defendant is under indictment for intentional killing. E.g., Ward v. State, 615 S.W.2d 752, 753 (Tex.Crim.App. 1981). However, it is clear these authorities deal only with murder and not with capital murder.

  3. Cevallos v. State

    646 S.W.2d 466 (Tex. App. 1982)   Cited 1 times

    Colbert v. State, supra; Ward v. State, 615 S.W.2d 752 (Tex.Cr.App. 1981). In view of our holding on fundamental error, appellant's other errors need not be reached.
