Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
Jose Marin, Jr., Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee
December 14, 19941994 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 138
Summary
The Court held that Tex.Code Crim.Proc.Ann. art. 1.051(e) applies to a substitute appointed attorney, requiring ten days of preparation; because appellant’s counsel received only six days, the Court reversed the Court of Appeals and remanded. Justice Meyers, in a concurring opinion, agreed with the result but argued that prior cases limiting the right should be overruled.
