TO THE HONORABLEJUDGE OF SAID COURT: '· ..... .
Come now ~A- (.( \.A. ) D0 c c eER' Defendant in the above styled and numbered cause and files this Motion Requesting Prosecution to Reveal Agreement with Witnesses, in the nature of concessions by the State of Texas to the witness which could influence the testimony of the witness, and in support of said motion would show the Court the following:
I.
The witness, A- V\ t_\_lt_ 0 ~(\\A L :i~~ooperating conspirator 1'\ 0
in the offense with which the Defendant is charged. The witness will testify on direct examination as a key prosecution witness and his testimony seeks to implicate inculpate Defendant as having engaged in the criminal conduct alleged herein.
II. --· ·-· --- . . If the prosecution has made either promises or implied that it will make concessions to the witness in. order to induce his testimony, the defense has a right to know the nature of the concession made, promised or implied to the witness or his representatives in order to prove that the witness' testimony was biased by such decisions. Without such disclosure, defense counsel can only speculate that the concessions probably involve doubtful proof on the issue of credibility. To deny disclosure of information which could influence the witness testimony violates Defendant's rightto due process oflaw. WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Defendant prays the C~:mrt issue an Order requiring the prosecution reveal the exact nature of negotiations arid k discussions with the witness DA-N\ tLLE._ f2> r ,' o---- lo PE: 4-or his attorney concerning any promises or expectations, expressed or implied, regarding concessions which could or might be expected to occur in the event witness 0 M l (]\I'\~ -e._ I\ e £>- r ,· 6-_ (9 PI= 7 cooperated with the prosecution by testifying against Defendant herein
