IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS

NO. PD-1214-11

JASON THAD PAYNE, Appellant

v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS

ON APPELLANT'S PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW
FROM THE TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS

WOOD COUNTY

 Meyers, J., filed a dissenting opinion.

DISSENTING OPINION

	The majority reverses after concluding that the court of appeals erred in
determining that the admission of several erroneously admitted victim statements was
harmless.  I disagree with this conclusion.  After examining the court of appeals opinion, I
agree that the admission of the statements was harmless error, and feel that the analysis
conducted by the court of appeals is more accurate than the analysis conducted by the
majority.  There is no way a rational trier of fact would have reached a different result had
the error not occurred. (1)
	With these comments, I respectfully dissent.
								Meyers, J.
