Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

Gilberto Aguilar Nunfio, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

April 10, 19911991 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 72

Summary

The Court held that the trial judge properly preserved the issue by expressly refusing the defendant's proposed voir dire question about the victim's vocation, that the question was proper, and that denial of such a proper question is an abuse of discretion not subject to a Rule 81(b)(2) harm analysis. Accordingly, the conviction was reversed and the case remanded to the trial court.
