Diane Marie Mattias, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Court held that intent to consummate a sexual act is not an element of the offense of knowingly offering to engage in sexual conduct for a fee under Penal Code § 43.02(a)(1), and that the evidence was sufficient to support the conviction; it reversed the Court of Appeals' acquittal and remanded for further review of other alleged errors. Justice Clinton dissented, arguing that the price quotation does not constitute a knowing offer and that the conviction should be affirmed.
