PARSONS v. STATE

No. 10-03-00007-CR.

191 S.W.3d 862 (2006)

Joseph Daniel PARSONS, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee.

Court of Appeals of Texas, Waco.

April 12, 2006.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Stan Schwieger, Waco, for Joseph Daniel Parsons.

Kathryn J. Gilliam, Falls County Dist. Atty., Marlin, for The State of Texas.

Before Chief Justice GRAY, Justice VANCE, and Justice REYNA.

OPINION ON REMAND

BILL VANCE, Justice.

Appellant shot Calvin Penny. A jury rejected his self-defense claim, found him guilty, and assessed seven years in prison, to which the court sentenced him. The sole claim on appeal is errors in the jury charge, i.e., an incorrect definition of "deadly force" and the failure to define "serious bodily injury." Finding errors in the charge but no egregious harm, we will affirm the judgment.
