Curry v. State
Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
MORRISON, Judge.
The offense is murder with malice; the punishment, death.
Appellant’s first seven grounds of error relate to the court’s charge to the jury on the guilt-innocence phase of the trial. All of appellant’s objections to the charge, which are included in the statement of facts, were made orally. Such objections are not sufficient to preserve error for review by this Court. See Arts. 36.14 and 36.19, Vernon’s Ann.C.C.P., and Seefurth v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 422 S.W.2d 931. However, in light of the penalty assessed in this case, we will briefly discuss each of these contentions.
