Description
Appellant was convicted of the misdemeanor offense of driving a motor vehicle in a public place while intoxicated. The jury found her guilty and assessed punishment at 30 days confinement in the Tarrant county Jail and a $500.00 fine. Appellant appealed her conviction to the Second Court of Appeals. That court reversed the conviction in a published opinion, Stone v. State, 685 S.W.2d 791 (Tex.App.-Fort Worth, 1985). The State petitioned this Court for discretionary review, which we granted to consider two issues arising from the court of appeals decision to reverse the case: first, whether the court of appeals used the wrong rule when it held that the trial court should have instructed the jury on the issue of probable cause to stop the vehicle pursuant to Art. 38.23, V.A.C.C.P.; and second, whether appellants requested instruction on that issue properly apprised the trial court of the deficiency in the charge.
