Appellant was convicted by a jury of aggravated rape. Punishment was assessed at confinement for life in the Texas Department of Corrections. The Court of Appeals, relying upon testimony provided in a supplement to the appellate record, reversed the conviction because the State failed to disclose promises made to an accomplice regarding leniency in exchange for testimony. Farris v. State, 676 S.W.2d 674. (Tex.App.-- Houston [1st] 1984). We granted the States petition for discretionary review on five grounds for review. However, we will dispose of the case on the two grounds which pertain to supplementation of the record. We will reverse and remand.
