Ham v. State10/5/1999
ily be avoided." Walton, 796 S.W.2d at 379. When in doubt, it would be more prudent and advisable, in the interest of judicial economy, and in the interest of avoiding even the appearance of bias or unfairness on the part of a juror, to either further question the potential juror in order to clarify any remaining ambiguities arising from his or her answers before ruling on the motion to strike, or to eliminate any potential problems by striking the potential juror in response to the challenge for cause. Walker, 795 S.W.2d at 525-26.
Nonetheless, we find that the motion court below did not err in holding that the failure to strike Ms. Huffman for cause would not have resulted in reversal of the conviction had it been raised on direct appeal, and we therefore affirm denial of Mr. Ham's post-conviction motion.
Separate Opinion:
None
