Description

Appellant was convicted by a jury of burglary of a vehicle. V.T.C.A. Penal Code 30.04. The trial court assessed punishment at six years confinement in the Texas Department of Corrections. On direct appeal, appellants conviction was affirmed. Griffin v. State, 725 S.W.2d 773 (Tex.App. - Dallas 1987). The Court of Appeals overruled appellants challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence and his complaint that the trial court erred in sustaining the prosecutors objection to defense counsels jury argument at guilt/innocence. We granted appellants petition for discretionary review to determine whether the Court of Appeals was correct in concluding that defense counsel cured the trial courts error in sustaining the prosecutors objection to the jury argument, and also to determine whether the Court of Appeals applied the correct standard of review in affirming appellants conviction. We will reverse the judgment of the Court of Appeals and remand to that court for review consistent with this opinion.
