Preston v. State
Texas Court of Appeals, 5th District (Dallas)
1Opinion of the Court
SPARLING, Justice.
Appellant was convicted of aggravated assault and sentenced to two years’ imprisonment. Appellant contends that (1) the evidence was insufficient because a verdict of acquittal on a companion case resolved a fact issue necessary to conviction; (2) there was insufficient evidence of a threat; (3) the indictment was insufficient because it failed to allege the manner and means of commission of the offense; and (4) the court erred by refusing to charge on reckless conduct. We affirm.
