IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS




NO. 1182-99

MARIA MARTINEZ, Appellant

v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS


ON STATE'S PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW

FROM THE EIGHTH COURT OF APPEALS

EL PASO COUNTY


Johnson, J., filed a concurring opinion.


CONCURRING OPINION

I agree that the trial court impliedly found that Mr. Rudd qualified as an expert. On that basis, I believe that Mr. Rudd's testimony was of the type which is contemplated by Tex. R. Crim. Evid. 703, and was therefore properly admitted. With that comment, I join the opinion of the court.

Johnson, J.
