Description
A jury found appellant, James Stacey Turner, guilty of failure to register or verify registration as a sex offender as required in Code of Criminal Procedure article 62.06. See Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. arts. 62.06, 62.10 (Vernon Supp. 2003). After finding two enhancement paragraphs to be true, the jury assessed punishment at 15 years' confinement and a $10,000 fine. In two points of error, appellant contends the trial court erred by (1) instructing the jury that felony sodomy is a "sexually violent offense" and (2) denying appellant's motion for directed verdict. We affirm.
