Guy Morgan, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Court of Criminal Appeals held that the appellant preserved his Fourth Amendment search‑and‑seizure claim for appellate review despite entering a guilty plea with a judicial confession, overruled the prior Haney, Stiggers, Ferguson, Mooney and Wooten line of cases, and remanded the cause to the Court of Appeals for a merits review of the pre‑trial motion ruling. A concurring judge joined the majority and a dissenting judge argued the conviction should be affirmed.
