Martinez V. State
By Third District, at Austin Texas Court of Appeals
- Release Date: 2006-06-09
- Genre: Law
Description
A jury found appellant Leonardo Martinez guilty of the offenses of aggravated sexual assault of a child, indecency with a child by contact, and indecency with a child by exposure. See Tex. Pen. Code Ann. §§ 21.11 (indecency with a child), 22.021(a)(1)(B) (aggravated sexual assault of a child) (West 2003 & Supp. 2005). Martinez argues that the court's charge permitted the jury to convict him of each offense with less than a unanimous verdict and that this error requires reversal. Martinez also asserts that his right against double jeopardy was violated and that the district court erred in excluding testimony that the victim may have been molested by an alternative perpetrator. We will affirm the judgment of the district court.
