May 18, 19881988 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 270

Summary

The Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas reversed the conviction because the trial court erred in admitting extraneous offense evidence involving a third party, which was not permissible under Texas law. The Court declined to address the constitutionality of Article 38.071, §§ 4‑5, V.A.C.C.P.
