## How later opinions describe it (automated extraction)

- holding that the appellant failed to preserve error regarding a Apen packet@ offered into evidence during the punishment phase of trial when appellant=s attorney stated, AWe object to each and every reference in the exhibit to probation and ask the court to strike the same out.@
- holding that permissible areas of jury argument are a summation of the evidence, a reasonable deduction from the evidence, an answer to opposing counsel's argument, and a plea for law enforcement
- finding that instruction cured effects of prosecutor’s question about defendant’s probation revocation
- noting that mere asking of improper question is not reversible error unless it results in obvious harm to accused

## Opinion text

I would sustain the State’s ground of review and overrule appellant’s grounds for review.
