OPINION

HUDSON, Justice.

Appellant was convicted of forgery by a jury. 1 After finding two enhancement paragraphs to be true, the jury assessed appellant’s punishment at confinement in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for a term of 17 years and a $2,000 fine. In two points of error, appellant contends: (1) that the trial court erred in limiting her cross-examination of the complaining witness; and (2) that it was legally impossible for her to commit a forgery because she held a community interest in the funds. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
