““On original submission, the panel concluded there was fundamental error in the court’s charge to the jury. Appellant was charged by indictment with possession of a forged writing with intent to pass it. V.T.C.A., Penal Code, Sec. 32.-21(a)(1)(C). The court’s charge instructed the jury to convict if they found that appellant possessed a forged writing with intent to issue it. “We note that the jury charge in question was requested by appellant and submitted to the jury exactly as it was requested except for two paragraphs not material to the question here presented. u * * * “We have held many times that an accused cannot invite error and then complain thereof, [citations omitted] Consequently, if a defendant requests a charge and that charge is given just as requested, he is in no position to complain of any error therein, [citations omitted] We find that the appellant is in no position to complain since the charge given by the court was requested by appellant.” 587 S.W.2d at 741”
