Brooks v. Stategreen
texcrimapp · 2010 · cited in 1 Texas opinions naming this issue, 2011–2011
1 sentence

2011One of the four judges in the lead opinion, joined by a fifth judge, wrote a concurring opinion stating that Clewis’s attempt to superimpose the civil factual sufficiency standard on top of the criminal legal sufficiency standard was doomed to failure because the two standards are fundamentally distinct and cannot be harmonized, that the Jackson standard is constitutionally mandated and must be followed in all criminal cases, and that the concept of factual sufficiency review in criminal cases should be “consign[ed] . . . to the dustbin of history.” Id. at 926 (Cochran, J., concurring).
