How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- recognizing that in Cockrell, 933 S.W.2d at 89, it determined that a defendant forfeits his appellate complaint by not contemporaneously objecting to improper jury argument
- holding that complaint about prejudgment of sentence is a category-two Marin right that cannot be forfeited merely by the failure to assert it at trial
- recognizing that due process requires a revocation hearing before a neutral and detached judge
- concluding that trial court violated defendant’s right to be sentenced after consideration of entire punishment range where record showed that trial court expressly accepted the State’s erroneous assertion that a 10 year minimum applied and admonished defendant accordingly
- stating that with exceptions not applicable here, errors may be forfeited by appellant’s failure to object at trial
- explaining that except for absolute and waivable only rights, “all errors—even constitutional errors—may be forfeited on appeal if an appellant failed to object at trial”
