Hawkins v. State

PARKS, Presiding Judge,

specially concurring.

I agree with the majority that the conviction should be reversed for the reasons stated. However, I would also reverse appellant’s conviction based on his first proposition of error wherein he claims that the trial judge abused his discretion by rejecting the jury’s request to rehear appellant's *143testimony after sustaining a like request to rehear testimony of a witness representing the prosecution. This clearly emphasized that portion of the State’s case. See Givens v. State, 705 P.2d 1139, 1141 (Okl.Crim.App.1985).
