Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
Noe Cisneros, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee
June 12, 19851985 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 1436
Summary
The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the conviction, holding that the prosecutor's cross‑examination of the defendant about his pre‑arrest silence did not violate the Fifth or Fourteenth Amendments and that any error was not preserved because the objection was untimely and nonspecific. The court distinguished Doyle and followed Jenkins, concluding the questioning was permissible.
