March 8, 19951995 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 21
Summary
The Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the lower court, holding that the DeGarmo waiver doctrine remains valid and that appellant waived any error arising from the admission of extraneous offense evidence by admitting guilt at the punishment phase. The dissent argued the doctrine should be overruled and that the majority misapplied DeGarmo.
