Yarbrough v. State - 10th COA

The court did not err by denying the defendant's request for post-conviction DNA analysis and by denying his motion for a bench warrant so he could participate in the DNA hearing. The defendant failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he would not have been convicted if exculpatory DNA results were obtained because the record contains sufficient other evidence connecting the defendant to the crime as a party. A defendant has no right to be at a hearing for post-conviction DNA testing because it is a collateral proceeding. Yarbrough v. State, 10-07-00024-CR.
