Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

Rudolph De La Rosa, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

May 3, 19671967 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 1042

Summary

The Court reversed the conviction, holding that the trial court's thirty‑minute limitation on voir dire unreasonably restricted the defendant's right to individually examine prospective jurors, and remanded for further proceedings. Justice Woodley dissented, arguing that reversal requires a showing of injury and that the record was not preserved.
