Description

This is an appeal from a judgment removing Jack R. Stern from the office of District Attorney for Fort Bend County. Relators alleged incompetence and official misconduct under the Texas Removal Statute as grounds for Mr. Sterns removal. Tex. Rev. Civ. Stat. Ann. art. 87.013 (Vernon 1988). The crux of the complaint against Jack Stern is twofold: (1) he publicly released transcripts of grand jury testimony, and (2) he abused a grand jury witness. This combined conduct forms the bedrock upon which the removal action was founded. After trial, the jury returned a verdict removing Stern from office for official misconduct and incompetent behavior. Stern comes before this Court asserting thirteen points of error, variously grouped. We affirm.
