Description
Javier Edwuardo Villarreal was convicted by a jury for aggravated assault on his girlfriend by using a rolling pin, alleged to be a deadly weapon. See Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 22.02(a)(2) (Vernon Supp. 2006). The jury assessed the maximum punishment of twenty years imprisonment. Villarreal does not challenge the sufficiency of the evidence, nor does he challenge any aspect of the guilt/innocence phase of his trial. Instead, he complains only of two issues relating to punishment. We, therefore, discuss only the relevant factual and procedural background; apply the pertinent law; and, agreeing that harmful, reversible error occurred, remand the cause to the trial court for a new trial on punishment. See Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 44.29 (Vernon Supp. 2006).
