Reginald Turner v. State Texas

ENOCH, Chief Justice. This suit was the subject of a prior appeal in this court. The prior appeal arose from a juvenile courts waiver of exclusive jurisdiction and transfer of appellant, Reginald Turner, to criminal district court for trial as an adult on one count of robbery and two counts of sexual assault, while retaining jurisdiction of two counts of arson. R T v . State, 764 S.W.2d 588, 589 (Tex. App. -- Dallas 1989, no writ). The juvenile court retained jurisdiction as to the arson counts because it found no probable cause to believe that appellant committed the alleged acts of arson. This Court, however, vacated the transfer order and remanded the cause to the juvenile court for a new trial, holding that the juvenile court, by retaining jurisdiction as to some counts, continued to retain exclusive jurisdiction as to all counts. R T, 764 S.W.2d at 590. On remand, the juvenile court granted the States motion for non-suit as to the arson counts and again signed a waiver of exclusive jurisdiction transferring appellant to criminal district court to stand trial as an adult for the aggravated robbery and aggravated sexual assault offenses. Appellant raises three points of error. Finding no error, we affirm.
