IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS





NO. PD-1631-13


WADE JEFFERSON, Appellant

v.


THE STATE OF TEXAS

 



ON STATE'S PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW
FROM THE FOURTEENTH COURT OF APPEALS

HARRIS COUNTY



 Per curiam.

O P I N I O N



	Appellant was convicted of murder and sentenced to 60 years in prison.  On appeal,
he argued, among other things, that the evidence was insufficient to support the $234 in court
costs assessed against him in the judgment.   The Court of Appeals agreed, relying on its
opinion in Johnson v. State, 389 S.W.3d 513 (Tex. App. - Houston [14th Dist.] 2012). 
Jefferson v. State, No. 14-12-00854-CR, 2013 Tex. App. LEXIS 13782 (Tex. App. -
Houston [14th Dist.] November 7, 2013) (not designated for publication).
	The State has filed a petition for discretionary review of this decision.  We recently
handed down our opinion in Johnson v. State, No. PD-0193-13, 2014 Tex. Crim. App.
LEXIS 240 (Tex. Crim. App. February 26, 2014), in which we set forth a roadmap for
resolving questions regarding court costs.  See also Cardenas v. State, No. PD-0733-13, 2014
Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 236 (Tex. Crim. App. February 26, 2014).
	The Court of Appeals in the instant case did not have the benefit of our opinion in
Johnson.  Accordingly, we grant the State's petition for discretionary review, vacate the
judgment of the Court of Appeals, and remand this case to the Court of Appeals in light of
our opinion in Johnson.  We also this day refuse Appellant's petition for discretionary review
in this case.  No motion for rehearing will be entertained.
