TIMOTHY JAN LEFTWICH, Appellant V.

On Appeal from the 5th District Court Cass County, Texas

Trial Court No. 2021 F 00103

Before Stevens, C.J., van Cleef and Rambin, JJ.

Memorandum Opinion by Justice van Cleef

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Timothy Jan Leftwich challenges his convictions for the sexual assault of Amy Fike1 in this case and two other companion cases.2 Leftwich alleges (1) that the evidence is insufficient to show he did not have consent at the time of the alleged offense and (2) that the trial court erred in refusing to allow Leftwich to cross-examine Fike about her affair with another person. We addressed these issues in detail in our opinion in his companion appeal filed under cause number 06-23-00114-CR. For the reasons stated therein, we overrule these issues and affirm his conviction in this case.

We affirm the trial court’s judgment.
