Gallegos v. State
Texas Court of Appeals, 1st District (Houston)
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
JACK SMITH, Justice.
This is an appeal from the conviction of possession of a controlled substance, heroin. The jury found appellant guilty, and after the trial court found the enhancement paragraphs to be true, it sentenced him to 60 years confinement. In five points of error, appellant contends that the trial court abused its discretion in denying his request for new counsel; erred in refusing counsel a 10-day continuance; erred in ordering that appellant pay attorney’s fees as a condition of parole; and that he was denied reasonably effective assistance of counsel.
