Texas Supreme Court

In the Matter of R.J.H.

May 30, 200279 S.W.3d 1

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the juvenile's later oral statements to a detective were voluntary and admissible, rejecting the appellate court's finding of due‑process violation and its reliance on the Family Code provision, and therefore reversed the appellate judgment and reinstated the trial court's delinquency adjudication.
