Description
Appellant, Bob Ahmadi, was convicted by a jury for the offense of arson. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. ? 28.02 (Vernon Supp. 1993). The jury further found that a fireman was injured as a result of the fire, thus elevating the offense to a first degree felony, and that the accelerant used to start the fire was a deadly weapon. The jury assessed punishment at life confinement in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice and a $10,000 fine. On appeal appellant raises three points of error contending that: (1) the trial court failed to give the proper definition of "reasonable doubt;" (2) the trial court failed to allow the defense attorney to withdraw when timely requested; and (3) the conduct of trial counsel denied the appellant effective assistance of counsel and a fair trial.
