Eric Ray Price, Jr., Appellant v. the State of Texas

Summary

The Court affirmed the Court of Appeals, holding that third-degree felony family‑violence assault by strangulation is a result‑of‑conduct offense only and that the trial court did not err by omitting a nature‑of‑conduct instruction. Justice Meyers dissented, arguing the strangulation element is the gravamen, while Justice Yeary concurred, agreeing with the judgment but expressing uncertainty about the statutory classification.
