Mai v. State

Appellant Rick Louis Mai appeals his misdemeanor conviction for resisting arrest. After a jury convicted Appellant, the trial court imposed a $4,000 fine and sentenced him to one year in jail. The trial court suspended his sentence and placed him on community supervision for two years. In three points, Appellant complains that the trial court committed reversible error by excluding evidence of prior acts of violence and aggression by the officer who arrested him and evidence concerning the investigation by the Texas Rangers into the incident in question, and by admitting into evidence an officers recitation of the notes he had made about the case on the evening before his testimony. In his fourth point, Appellant contends that the conviction is void because the county attorney participated in the trial after a special prosecutor had been appointed. We affirm.
