                                GEORGE LESLIE SANDERS, Appellant

                                                                V.

                                     THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

                                       On Appeal from the 196th Judicial District Court

                                                              Hunt County, Texas

                                                            Trial Court No. 25024

                                          Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ.

                                            Memorandum Opinion by Justice Moseley

                                                     MEMORANDUM OPINION

            George Leslie Sanders appeals from his convictions on three charges of delivery of methamphetamine.  A jury assessed punishment at forty-nine years' imprisonment in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice–Institutional Division.  Sanders filed a single brief with this Court, in which he raises issues common to all of his appeals.^[1]  Sanders argues he was denied due process by allegedly false misrepresentations made by the State’s witness with the goal of inflaming the jury.  He also alleges the trial court abused its discretion in denying motions for mistrial, and in allowing the State to question him about previous convictions used for enhancement during punishment. 

            We addressed these issues in detail in our opinion of this date on Sanders’ appeal in cause number 06-09-00098-CR.  For the reasons stated therein, we likewise conclude that error has not been shown in this case.

            We affirm the trial court’s judgment.
