Price v. Texas (original by judge johnson)
Annotate this CaseA jury convicted appellant Eric Price of third-degree felony family-violence assault. Appellant pled true to the enhancement and habitual allegations, and was sentenced to fifty years in prison. Appellant appealed, arguing, among other things, that the offense of third-degree-felony family violence assault was both result-oriented and conduct-oriented, and that the trial court erred in failing to include language tying the culpable mental state to the nature of the conduct. Because domestic violence is a result-of conduct offense only, the Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the judgment of the court of appeals.
