Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

Charles E. Miffleton, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

May 24, 19891989 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 107

Summary

The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the conviction, holding that the right to counsel attaches only when a complaint is filed, that the visual portion of a videotaped sobriety test is not testimonial and thus not protected by the Fifth Amendment or the Texas Constitution, and that the audio portion should have been suppressed as compelled testimony but did not affect the verdict.
