Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

Carl Lee Calloway, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

January 27, 19881988 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 35

Summary

The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the Court of Appeals' judgment, holding that the trial court did not err in denying the appellant's motion to suppress because the appellant failed to demonstrate a personal Fourth Amendment privacy interest and thus lacked standing; the court emphasized the trial court's discretionary authority over pre‑trial suppressions. Justice Teague and Justice Clinton each filed concurring opinions noting agreement with the result but offering additional commentary on the standing analysis.
