In The Court of Appeals Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana ______________________________ No. 06-09-00068-CR ______________________________ JAMES DIXON GRAVES, JR., Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 76th Judicial District Court Morris County, Texas Trial Court No. 10,003 Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ. Memorandum Opinion by Justice Moseley MEMORANDUM OPINION James Dixon Graves, Jr., appeals from his conviction by a jury in this cause on one charge of aggravated sexual assault of a disabled individual for which he received a sentence of seventy-five years in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Institutional Division to run concurrently with his other convictions.1 Graves has filed a single brief in which he raises issues common to all of his appeals. He argues that the trial court erred in denying the following: (1) his motion to suppress the evidence; (2) his request for funds to hire an expert; (3) his request to have the victim examined by the expert as to her disability and competency to testify; and (4) his motion for mistrial. Graves also complains that the evidence was insufficient to establish that the victim met the definition of disabled under the Texas Penal Code. We addressed these issues in detail in our opinion of this date on Graves s appeal in cause number 06-09-00063-CR. For the reasons stated therein, we likewise conclude that error has not been shown in this case. We affirm the judgment. Bailey C. Moseley Justice Date Submitted: Date Decided: 1 February 5, 2010 February 24, 2010 Graves appeals from judgments entered in cause numbers 06-09-00063-CR through 06-09-00070-CR. 2 Do Not Publish 3
