HAYWARD v. STATE

No. 14-01-01185-CR.

117 S.W.3d 5 (2003)

Shantee D. HAYWARD, Appellant, v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee.

Court of Appeals of Texas, Houston (14th Dist.).

Rehearing Overruled October 2, 2003.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Jerome Godinich, Jr., Houston, for appellant.

Donald W. Rogers, Jr., Houston, for appellee.

Panel consists of Justices YATES, ANDERSON, and FROST.


OPINION

KEM THOMPSON FROST, Justice.

Shantee D. Hayward appeals her conviction for murder. We find the evidence legally sufficient to support appellant's conviction, but reverse the trial court's judgment and remand for a new trial because the trial court erroneously denied appellant's request for a jury instruction on assault as a lesser-included offense.
