OPINION
Opinion by
Justice CORNELIUS (Retired).
After a jury trial, Larry Ray Gill was convicted of assault on a family member. Tex. Pen.Code Ann. § 22.01(b)(2) (Vernon 2003). The victim was Tracy, Gill’s wife. Because this was Gill’s second conviction for family violence, the offense was enhanced to a third degree felony, and the trial court sentenced Gill to five years’ confinement. On appeal, Gill brings the following contentions: (1) the trial court erred by not hearing live testimony at the hearing on the motion for new trial; and (2) Gill was provided ineffective assistance of counsel.
