The appellant was convicted of intentionally or knowingly causing seriously bodily injury to a child, a first-degree offense, ⁽¹⁾ and sentenced to forty years' imprisonment with a $10,000 fine. In an unpublished opinion, the Fifth Court of Appeals affirmed his conviction, holding that the erroneous definition of "intentionally" that the prosecutor offered the jury during her closing argument was harmless, as was any error the trial court committed in overruling the appellant's objections thereto and later sustaining the State's objections to defense counsel's attempt to correct this definition in his closing argument. ⁽²⁾ We granted the appellant's petition for discretionary review to review the court of appeals's opinion with respect to specific aspects of its harm analysis. Having examined the record and briefs and considered the arguments in this case, we conclude that our decision to grant review was improvident. We therefore dismiss the appellant's petition as improvidently granted.
