Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
Ex Parte Armando C. Acosta
July 11, 19841984 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 695
Summary
The Court held that the trial counsel's conflict of interest constituted ineffective assistance of counsel under the Sixth Amendment, setting aside the revocation of probation and remanding for further proceedings. The Court declined to revisit the sufficiency of the evidence because that issue had already been decided by the Fourth Court of Appeals.
