LESTER BAXTER STARNES, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

---

On Appeal from the 336th Judicial District Court Fannin County, Texas Trial Court No. 20924

---

Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ. Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Morriss

MEMORANDUM OPINION

A jury found Lester Baxter Starnes guilty in a single trial of three charges of aggravated sexual assault of a child and three charges of indecency with a child. This appeal concerns Starnes' convictions in trial court cause number 20924. All three causes were appealed separately, but were briefed together on appeal by both Starnes and the State. ⁽¹⁾ Starnes raises the same issues in each appeal.

Since the briefs and arguments raised in each appeal are identical, for the reasons stated in Starnes v. State, cause number 06-06-00099-CR, we likewise conclude Starnes has presented this Court with no reversible error and affirm the trial court's judgment.
