OPINION

LATTIMORE, Justice.

Appellant Darin E. Dalton was convicted by a jury of the offense of aggravated sexual assault. See Tex.Penal Code Ann. § 22.021 (Vernon 1994). The jury assessed punishment at life confinement in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. In seven points of error, Dalton contends the trial court’s judgment is void ab initio, there is insufficient evidence to support the jury’s verdict, and the trial court’s charge erroneously included an instruction on State parole laws.

We reform the judgment of the trial court and affirm as reformed.
