Larry Brent KITCHENS, Appellant, v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee.

Court of Appeals of Texas, Amarillo.

August 8, 2005.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Richard L. Wardroup, Law Office of Richard L. Wardroup, L.L.C., Lubbock, TX, for Appellant.

Kelley K. Messer, Asst. District Atty., Plainview, TX, for Appellee.

Before QUINN, C.J., and REAVIS and CAMPBELL, JJ.


Opinion

BRIAN QUINN, Chief Justice.

Appellant Larry Brent Kitchens appeals from three orders denying his applications for writs of habeas corpus. Through those writs, he sought the dismissal of three indictments through which he was charged with capital murder. According to appellant, the trial court was obligated to so dismiss the causes since their prosecution was barred by double jeopardy. We reverse in part and affirm in part.
