1Opinion of the Court

McCLUNG, Justice.

Clarence C. Archer appeals a jury verdict in a civil action for damages arising out of a sexual assault of a child. The jury found that Archer had sexually assaulted the child and awarded her both actual and punitive damages. In two points of error, Archer alleges that the trial court erred in admitting certain hearsay testimony and that, due to a fatal conflict in the answers to two jury questions, the award of punitive damages was prohibited. We affirm the trial court’s judgment.

Archer failed to cause a statement of facts to be filed, as was his duty. TEX. R.APP.P. 53, 54.…
