Ex parte Watson
The defendant's prosecution for intoxication assault was not barred by
double jeopardy when failure to yield right-of-way was included as one
of the elements and the defendant had already been punished for the
offense of failure to yield right-of-way. The elements of intoxication assault required the State to prove
that the defendant had driven a car while intoxicated and by reason of
that intoxication caused bodily injury by accident or mistake. The
State needed to show only that he caused bodily injury. The manner in
which he did so was not an element of the offense.
