Oral Argument Recording

Mr. Pearson has extensive experience in capital murder and murder cases.  The Courts, in this region of Texas, often appoint him to handle very complex trials and appeals, which follow if there is a conviction.  The audio link below is to David’s March 8, 2016, Oral Argument in the Fort Worth Court of Appeals on one of these difficult appellate cases, Rodney Chase Pettigrew v. The State of Texas.  (Rodney Pettigrew gave permission to post this link online.)
