Texas Court of Appeals, 6th District (Texarkana)

1Opinion of the Court

OPINION

GRANT, Justice.

Kenned Rodriguez appeals from a ruling certifying him as an adult and from a conviction for aggravated robbery. A jury found Rodriguez guilty and assessed punishment at forty years’ imprisonment and a fine of $5,000.

Rodriguez contends that the trial court did not have jurisdiction because the transfer order from the juvenile court was invalid. Rodriguez also contends that he received ineffective assistance of counsel in both the guilt/innocence and punishment phases of trial because trial counsel failed to object to inadmissible evidence and improper jury argument.
