Franklin Passmore, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas affirmed Franklin Passmore's burglary conviction, rejecting his three asserted errors: the evidence was sufficient to corroborate the accomplice's testimony, the trial court's limitation on cross‑examination was preserved because no bill of exception was filed, and his counsel provided reasonably effective assistance. Judge Clinton filed a concurring opinion expressing concern over the treatment of the ineffective‑assistance claim.
