07-01-0046-CR IN THE COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SEVENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS AT AMARILLO PANEL D DECEMBER 12, 2001 ______________________________ JOHN EDWARD JAROCH, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee _________________________________ FROM THE 180TH DISTRICT COURT OF HARRIS COUNTY; NO. 859,156; HON. DEBBIE STRICKLIN, PRESIDING _______________________________ Before BOYD, C.J., QUINN and REAVIS, JJ. John Edward Jaroch (appellant) appeals his conviction for sexual assault of a child. Through three issues, he contends that 1) his counsel was ineffective, 2) the trial court erred in excluding testimony regarding the victim s prior sexual relationship and 3) the trial court erred in excluding appellant s written statement during punishment. These issues are identical to those raised in John Edward Jaroch v. State, No. 07- 00-0045-CR, pending in this court. Consequently, we adopt the reasoning and discussion in our opinion issued this day in cause number 07-00-0045-CR and conclude that it sufficiently disposes of the three issues appellant raises at bar. In doing so, we also overrule appellant s contentions and affirm the judgment entered below. Brian Quinn Justice Do not publish. 2 3
