IN RE COMMITMENT OF KALATI

No. 09-11-00285-CV.

370 S.W.3d 435 (2012)

In re COMMITMENT of Mohammad Reza KALATI.

Court of Appeals of Texas, Beaumont.

Decided May 3, 2012.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Kenneth Nash , State Counsel for Offenders, Huntsville, appellant.

Melinda Fletcher , Special Prosecution Unit, Amarillo, for appellee.

Before McKEITHEN, C.J., GAULTNEY and HORTON, JJ.


OPINION

HOLLIS HORTON, Justice.

Mohammad Reza Kalati challenges his civil commitment as a sexually violent predator. See Tex. Health & Safety Code Ann. §§ 841.001-.151 (West 2010 & Supp. 2011) (the SVP statute). Kalati raises nine issues. We hold that the evidence is legally sufficient; however, due to error that occurred during jury selection, we are required to reverse the judgment and remand the case to allow another trial.
