Descripción editorial
Appellant was convicted of murder in a trial before the jury. Punishment was assessed by the jury at 20 years imprisonment. On appeal to the Beaumont Court of Appeals, appellants conviction was affirmed. Frank v. State, S.W.2d (Tex.App. -- Beaumont No. 09-83-018 CR, November 9, 1983). We granted the appellants petition for discretionary review to determine, among other things, whether the court of appeals was correct in holding that appellant was not entitled to a defensive charge on the right to defend himself against a joint attack. We reverse.
