Albert Ehret v. State

NO. 07-05-0201-CR IN THE COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SEVENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS AT AMARILLO PANEL B JUNE 1, 2006 ______________________________ ALBERT LAWRENCE EHRET, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee _________________________________ FROM THE 108TH DISTRICT COURT OF POTTER COUNTY; NO. 50,187-E; HON. ABE LOPEZ, PRESIDING _______________________________ Memorandum Opinion _______________________________ Before QUINN, C.J., and CAMPBELL and HANCOCK, JJ. Albert Lawrence Ehret (appellant) appeals his conviction for possessing marihuana. Via two issues, he contends that the trial court erred in 1) denying his motion to suppress evidence and admitting evidence obtained as a result of an unlawful search and 2) denying him "his absolute right to create a bill of exception." We overrule each issue and affirm the judgment. Motion to Suppress and Admission of Evidence Regarding the initial point, we note that when the State proffered, at trial, the evidence at issue, appellant uttered that he had no objection to its admission. By so stating, he waived any complaint he had about the admissibility of the evidence. Moraguez v. State, 701 S.W.2d 902, 904 (Tex. Crim. App. 1986) (holding that while a defendant need not object to the admission of evidence at trial once his motion to suppress is overruled, stating at trial that he has no objection to its admission waives any complaint he had); Flores v. State, 129 S.W.3d 169, 171-72 (Tex. App.-Corpus Christi 2004, no pet.) (stating the same). Bill of Exceptions Regarding the chance to make a bill of exceptions, the evidence appellant allegedly believed relevant concerned his motion to suppress. It allegedly encompassed the "method the troopers used to obtain consent to search, inconsistent testimony as to reasonable suspicion and probable cause, and the privacy interests the passengers had in the vehicle." Assuming arguendo that the trial court did hamper appellant's ability to perfect a bill, we cannot see how it harmed him. Again, he waived any complaint he had about the admissibility of the evidence obtained as a result of the detention and search. Having waived any complaint about the admission of the evidence, how it was acquired no longer matters. And, the topics to be covered in the bill of exceptions pertained to how the State acquired it. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the trial court. Brian Quinn Chief Justice Do not publish. filed, we have no jurisdiction to consider the appeal.
