Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
Ronald Curtis Chambers, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee
May 24, 1978568 S.W.2d 313
Summary
The Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas affirmed Ronald Curtis Chambers' capital murder conviction and death sentence, holding that the trial court did not err in excusing certain jurors or denying additional peremptory challenges and that any voir‑dire errors were harmless. The dissent argued that the majority failed to apply Witherspoon properly and violated due‑process protections.
