"At any rate, 7.02 is not an offense. It is a principle for assigning criminal responsibility."

I repeat, you better inform the AG that his prosecutions are not valid ....

"On September 13, 2004, the State brought appellant to trial before a petit jury.   At that trial, the State sought to prove appellant's guilt, under both counts in the indictment, as a party under Texas Penal Code §§ 7.02(a)(2) and 7.02(b)

From the case you cited, Aaron GARZA VEGA, Appellant, v. The STATE of Texas ...
On January 20, 2003, an Hidalgo County grand jury returned an indictment charging appellant with one count of capital murder and one count of aggravated robbery. See Tex. Pen.Code S:S: 19.03(a)(2) & 29.03(a)(1).

Followed by the sentence you quoted, "the State sought to prove appellant's guilt, under both counts in the indictment ..." Neither of those two counts is an offense under 7.02, because there is not such thing as an offense under 7.02. However, as Vega didn't actually commit murder or aggravated robbery, the state had to invoke 7.02 in order to establish criminal responsibility for the charged offenses.

There was no count of "responsible for the criminal conduct of another," the indictment counts were murder and aggravated robbery.

Again, remarks for others, because you are too dense to understand, and unworthy of a civil or reasoned response.
