““ ‘In criminal cases, the trial court may notice judicially its own records and proceedings, and all judgments entered by the court. Thus, the court may, and indeed should, take judicial notice of the fact that the defendant or a witness has previously been convicted by the court.’ 23 Tex.Jur.2d, Evidence, Sec. 27, pp. 47-48.””
