Charles Ray Miller v. State

In The Court of Appeals Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana No. 06-14-00127-CR CHARLES RAY MILLER, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 8th District Court Hopkins County, Texas Trial Court No. 1423724 Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ. Memorandum Opinion by Justice Moseley MEMORANDUM OPINION In cause numbers 06-14-00120-CR through 06-14-00129-CR, Charles Ray Miller appeals from ten separate convictions for indecency with a child by contact. Miller has filed a single brief in which he raises an issue common to all of his appeals. Miller argues that he received ineffective assistance of counsel during the punishment phase of his trial. We addressed this issue in detail in our opinion of this date on Miller’s appeal in cause number 06-14-00120-CR. For the reasons stated therein, we likewise conclude in this mater that Miller failed to demonstrate (1) that his counsel’s performance fell below an objective standard of reasonableness and (2) that there is a reasonable probability that, but for counsel’s unprofessional errors, the result of the proceeding would have been different. Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668 (1984) ); Ex parte Imoudu, 284 S.W.3d 866, 869 (Tex. Crim. App. 2009). Consequently, we affirm the trial court’s judgment. Bailey C.
