OPINION

Opinion by Justice MOSELEY.

Dustin Kyle Scott was convicted of assault on a public servant, a third degree felony, and sentenced to five years' imprisonment. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 22.01(b)(1) (West Supp.2013). His primary issue on appeal deals with the fact that a juror failed on voir dire to reveal that he knew Sharon Scott (Scott's mother), a witness in the case. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
