Villarreal v. Texas · ¶17

In separate writings, multiple TCCA judges expressed hesitation with the “murky” line that emerges from Geders and Perry. See 707 S. W. 3d, at 147–148 (Yeary, J., concurring). They worried that confusion about the proper scope of conferral orders risks trenching on a defendant's Sixth Amendment right to obtain full, unqualifed advice on matters key to the effective assistance of counsel, such as whether to plead guilty. See id., at 148 (same); id., at 150 (Keel, J., concurring).
