Garcia v. Texas (original by judge keel)
Annotate this CaseAppellant Daniel Garcia was convicted by jury of aggravated sexual assault. He was sentenced to twelve years’ imprisonment and ordered him to pay $1,000 in restitution to the Office of the Attorney General. The court of appeals modified the trial court’s judgment to delete the restitution requirement and affirmed Appellant’s conviction as modified. The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals granted review to consider, among other things, whether an objection was required to preserve Appellant’s challenge to the restitution order. The Court concluded that an objection was required, none was made, and Appellant forfeited his challenge to the restitution order, so it did not reach the remaining grounds for review.
