Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

A judgment affirming a conviction for aggravated sexual assault of a child is reversed and remanded for consideration of whether the jury charge was erroneous because it did not limit the "on or about" language in regard to the statute of limitations to any date prior to the date of the filing of the indictment, and on or after defendant's seventeenth birthday, thus permitting the jury to convict him on the basis of testimony about numerous offenses alleged to have been committed while he was a juvenile.
