Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

In conviction for felony theft and sentence to fifteen years' confinement, decision to not hold a hearing on criminal-appellant's motion for new trial on the basis of ineffective counsel, is vacated where the docket-sheet entry, "Motion New Trial presented to court no ruling per judge," was sufficient to show that the motion was presented to the trial court as required by Rule 21.6.
