Summary

The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the Court of Appeals' reversal of Arturo Garcia Sanchez's official oppression conviction, holding that the appellate court was properly authorized to consider unassigned jury‑charge error, that the error caused egregious harm, and that the first unassigned error justified reversal, rendering the State's other grounds moot.
