Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
Clarence Randolph Bryant, Appellant v. the State of Texas
April 6, 20052005 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 517
Summary
The Court held that Clarence Randolph Bryant's stipulation to his prior DWI convictions constitutes a judicial admission that waives his right to contest the State's proof of those elements, thereby barring his sufficiency claim. The Court reversed the Court of Appeals' acquittal and remanded for further proceedings. Justice Meyers dissented and Justices Johnson and Cochran each filed concurring opinions.
