Gonzalez v. State

Defendant's sentence of 20 years imprisonment and $10,000 fine for engaging in organized criminal activity affirmed; applying the law of parties is authorized by the indictment, does not unnecessarily increase the state's burden of proof or unnecessarily restrict the state's theories of liability and adequately describes the particular offense for which the defendant was tried.

AFFIRMED AND OPINION FILED AUGUST 9, 2001.

OPINION

Alfonso Gonzalez appeals his conviction for engaging in organized criminal activity resulting in the theft of over $200,000. The jury assessed his punishment at 20 years imprisonment and a $10,000 fine. On appeal, appellant contends: (1) that the evidence is legally and factually insufficient to support the verdict; (2) that the trial court erred in disqualifying his original attorney; (3) that the trial court improperly commented on the constitutional rights of defendants; and (4) that the trial court erred in refusing to instruct the jury that a particular witness was an accomplice witness. We will affirm.
