Rusty Leon Osban, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

September 17, 19861986 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 819

Summary

The Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas reversed the Dallas Court of Appeals' suppression of four handguns seized from the trunk of Rusty Leon Osban's car, holding that the search was lawful and the evidence admissible, and remanded for further consideration of other alleged errors. The opinion also notes dissenting and concurring judges who argue the search lacked probable cause and the impoundment was unlawful.
