Roger Miller, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals reversed the Court of Appeals, holding that the identification testimony of officers was sufficient to prove Roger Miller was the perpetrator and that the seizure of cocaine was lawful because the officer had probable cause under the standard articulated in Texas v. Brown. The Court remanded for consideration of the remaining grounds of error. Justice Clinton dissented, arguing the State failed to show a factual nexus between the officer's experience and his belief that the substance was contraband.
