Description
Appellant was charged by two indictments with the offense of attempted capital murder. Each indictment was enhanced by two prior felony convictions. The cases were joined for trial before a jury. The jury found appellant guilty of both offenses, found the enhancement allegations true, and assessed punishment at life imprisonment for each offense. The Fifth Court of Appeals (Dallas) affirmed both convictions in an unpublished opinion. Grayson v. State, Nos. 05-82-00855 and 00856-CR, 12-27-83. We granted appellants petition for discretionary review to examine the Court of Appeals holding that the trial court properly refused to allow appellant to question a defense witness in the presence of the jury because the witness had not waived her Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination.
