 sat on the
grand jury which returned the indictment], constitutes a forfeiture of the
right to complain thereafter.Ô  Webb v. State, 232 S.W.3d 109, 112 (Tex. Crim. App. 2007).  In Webb, as in this case, Âneither party specifically asked
the panel if they had previously served on the grand jury that indicted
Appellant.ÂÂ  Id.
Accordingly, the trial court did not abuse its
discretion in denying GrahamÂs motion for mistrial.Â  Webb, 232 S.W.3d at
114.Â  We overrule GrahamÂs only issue and affirm the trial courtÂs judgment.
