Description
Opinion ON APPELLANT'S PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW Appellant was originally charged in a single indictment with three
counts of aggravated robbery. After the jury was impaneled and sworn, the State proceeded to trial on the second count only
and appellant was convicted of that alleged offense. A grand jury re-indicted appellant for the offenses alleged in the first
and third counts of the original indictment. Appellant filed a pretrial application for writ of habeas corpus contending the
subsequent prosecution violated his constitutional guarantee against double jeopardy. The trial court denied relief and the
Court of Appeals affirmed. Ex Parte Preston, 801 S.W.2d 604 (Tex.App.--Houston [1st Dist.] 1990). We will reverse the judgment
of the Court of Appeals. I.
