Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
Herman Ratliff Aka Herman Turner, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee
June 5, 19851985 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 1433
Summary
The Court held that the trial judge's time limitation on the appellant's voir dire was unreasonable under the three‑factor test, reversed the conviction and remanded for a new trial. Justice Teague, in a partial concurrence/dissent, argued that the Court should expressly overrule Barrett v. State.
