Francis v. State 805 S.W.2d 474

805 S.W.2d 474

Douglas Cordell FRANCIS, Appellant, v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee.

No. 099-91.

Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas, En Banc.

March 13, 1991.

Mike Carnahan, Houston, for appellant.

Michael J. Guarino, Dist. Atty. and B. Warren Goodson, Jr., Asst. Dist. Atty., Galveston, Robert Huttash, State’s Atty., Austin, for the State.

OPINION

PER CURIAM.

A jury convicted appellant of murder and assessed punishment at confinement for life plus a fine of $10,000. The Court of Appeals affirmed the conviction. Francis v. State, 801 S.W.2d 548, (Tex.App.—Houston [14th], 1990).

Appellant raises four grounds for review. After careful review we refuse appellant’s petition for review. However, as is true in every case in which discretionary review is refused, this refusal does not constitute endorsement or adoption of the reasoning employed by the Court of Appeals. Sheffield v. State, 650 S.W.2d 813 *475(Tex.Cr.App.1983). With this understanding, we refuse appellant’s petition for discretionary review.
