State v. Lauren Christine Klein

IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS No. 10-08-00344-CR The State of Texas, Appellant v. Lauren Christine Klein, Appellee From the County Court at Law No. 2 Johnson County, Texas Trial Court No. M200800627 MEMORANDUM Opinion Lauren Christine Klein was charged by information with driving while intoxicated. She filed a motion to suppress the breath test evidence, which the trial court granted. The trial court made the following findings of fact: 1. On February 23, 2008, Officer Brian Hartin, Alvarado Police Department, Alvarado, Johnson County, Texas, arrested the Defendant, Lauren Christine Klein, without a warrant, for the criminal offense of Driving While Intoxicated. 2. The said Defendant, Lauren Christine Klein, was 18 years of age on February 23, 2008. 3. Officer Hartin attempted to comply with §724.015, Information Provided by Officer Before Requesting Specimen, Texas Transportation Code, (Vernon 2001), subsequent to the arrest of the Defendant. Officer Hartin read the Texas Department of Public Safety, Statutory Warning, DIC-24 (rev. 9/05), to the Defendant, which tracks the information required by §724.015, Texas Transportation Code, except for paragraph (4). 4. Officer Hartin failed to read or orally inform the Defendant of paragraph (4) §724.015, Texas Transportation Code, (Vernon 2001), specifically regarding the information to be provided to a person under 21 years of age.[1] 5. Officer Hartin provided a written copy of the DIC-24 to the Defendant. 6. Officer Hartin thereafter requested the Defendant to submit to the taking of a specimen as noted in Chapter 724, Texas Transportation Code, (Vernon 2001). 7. Lauren Christine Klein provided a specimen of breath to Officer Hartin. Officer Hartin testified that the breath specimen provided by the Defendant indicated an alcohol concentration of 0.08 or more. The trial court also made the following conclusions of law: 1. Officer Hartin failed to comply with §724.015, Texas Transportation Code, (Vernon 2001). 2. The Defendant was not orally informed of the consequences of submitting to the taking, or refusing to the taking, of a specimen, specifically regarding a person under 21 years of age, as provided by §724.015, Texas Transportation Code, (Vernon 2001). 3. The specimen of the Defendant’s breath given to Officer Hartin while the Defendant was under arrest for Driving While Intoxicated was not voluntarily given. 4. The analysis of the alcohol concentration of said specimen is not admissible as evidence in the prosecution of the Defendant in this cause. In two issues, the State contends that the trial court erred in granting the motion. We review a trial court’s ruling on a motion to suppress evidence under a bifurcated standard of review. Amador v. State, 221 S.W.3d 666, 673 (Tex. Crim. App. 2007). In reviewing the trial court’s decision, we do not engage in our own factual review. Romero v. State, 800 S.W.2d 539, 543 (Tex. Crim. App. 1990); Best v. State, 118 S.W.3d 857, 861 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2003, no pet.). The trial judge is the sole trier of fact and judge of the credibility of the witnesses and the weight to be given their testimony. Wiede v. State, 214 S.W.3d 17, 24-25 (Tex. Crim. App. 2007); State v. Ross, 32 S.W.3d 853, 855 (Tex. Crim. App. 2000), modified on other grounds by State v. Cullen, 195 S.W.3d 696 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006). Therefore, we give almost total deference to the trial court’s rulings on (1) questions of historical fact, even if the trial court’s determination of those facts was not based on an evaluation of credibility and demeanor; and (2) application-of-law-to-fact questions that turn on an evaluation of credibility and demeanor. Amador, 221 S.W.3d at 673; Montanez v. State, 195 S.W.3d 101, 108-09 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006); Johnson v. State, 68 S.W.3d 644, 652-53 (Tex. Crim. App. 2002). But when application-of-law-to-fact questions do not turn on the credibility and demeanor of the witnesses, we review the trial court’s ruling on those questions de novo. Amador, 221 S.W.3d at 673; Johnson, 68 S.W.3d at 652-53. When reviewing the trial court’s ruling on a motion to suppress, we must view the evidence in the light most favorable to the trial court’s ruling. Wiede, 214 S.W.3d at 24; State v. Kelly, 204 S.W.3d 808, 818 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006). When the trial court makes explicit fact findings, we determine whether the evidence, when viewed in the light most favorable to the trial court’s ruling, supports those fact findings. Kelly, 204 S.W.3d at 818-19. We then review the trial court’s legal ruling de novo unless its explicit findings that are supported by the record are also dispositive of the legal ruling. Id. at 819. In its first issue, the State argues that the trial court erred in granting the motion to suppress because Klein provided a voluntary breath sample that was free of any physical or psychological pressures. The State further contends that Klein provided no causal connection between her giving of the breath specimen and Officer Hartin’s failure to read or orally inform her of paragraph (4) of section 724.015. The implied-consent statute provides that a person who is arrested for an offense arising out of acts alleged to have been committed while operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated is deemed to have consented to the taking of samples for a breath or blood test. Tex. Transp. Code Ann. § 724.011(a) (Vernon 1999). However, for consent to be effective, it must be voluntary. Turpin v. State, 606 S.W.2d 907, 914 (Tex. Crim. App. 1980). A person’s consent to a breath test is voluntary only if it is not the result of physical or psychological pressures. Erdman v. State, 861 S.W.2d 890, 893 (Tex. Crim. App. 1993). Section 724.015 of the Transportation Code provides that “[b]efore requesting a person to submit to the taking of a specimen, the officer shall inform the person orally and in writing” of the statutory warnings provided in section 724.015. Tex. Transp. Code Ann. § 724.015. If a driver’s consent is induced by an officer’s misstatement of the law and includes extra-statutory consequences of a refusal to submit to a breath test, the consent may be considered to have been involuntarily given. See, e.g., Erdman, 861 S.W.2d at 894 (holding extra-statutory warnings conveyed to the suspect were of the type that would result in “considerable psychological pressure”). However, the fact that the arresting officer gives a written warning but fails to give an oral warning before requesting a breath test does not, by itself, render the results of the test inadmissible. See Lane v. State, 951 S.W.2d 242, 243-44 (Tex. App.—Austin 1997, no pet.). There must be some showing of a causal connection between the failure to give the oral warning and the defendant’s consent to submit to the breath test to render the results of the test inadmissible. See id.; cf. Anderson v. State, No. 2-05-169-CR, 2006 WL 744272, at *1 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth Mar. 23, 2006, pet. dism’d) (mem. op.) (upholding admissibility of defendant’s refusal to take breath test because he failed to show causal connection between his refusal and officer’s failure to give written warnings before asking for breath sample). In this case, Officer Hartin did not misstate the law and include extra-statutory consequences of a refusal to submit to the breath test such that Klein’s consent is considered to have been involuntarily given. See Erdman, 861 S.W.2d at 893-94. Nevertheless, Officer Hartin’s failure to orally inform Klein of paragraph (4) of section 724.015 of the Transportation Code violated the statute. See Tex. Transp. Code Ann. § 724.015. But there is no evidence that Officer Hartin’s failure to read or orally inform Klein of paragraph (4) of section 724.015 had any impact on her decision to take the breath test. The evidence establishes that Klein was provided the written warnings. She did not contend at the suppression hearing, nor does she contend on appeal, that she did not understand the written warnings. Furthermore, before Officer Hartin gave any warnings to Klein, she admitted that she had been drinking. For these reasons, Klein has shown no causal connection between her consent to the breath test and Officer Hartin’s failure to orally inform her of paragraph (4) of section 724.015. See Lane, 951 S.W.2d at 243-44. We sustain the State’s first issue. Because the first issue is dispositive, we need not address the State’s second issue. We reverse the trial court’s grant of Klein’s motion to suppress and remand this cause to the trial court for further proceedings. REX D. DAVIS Justice Before Chief Justice Gray, Justice Reyna, and Justice Davis (Chief Justice Gray concurs in the judgment of the court. A separate opinion will not issue.) Reversed and remanded Opinion delivered and filed September 15, 2010 Do not publish [CR25] [1] Paragraph (4) of section 724.015 provides that if the person is younger than 21 years of age and has any detectable amount of alcohol in the person’s system, the person’s license to operate a motor vehicle will be automatically suspended for not less than 60 days even if the person submits to the taking of the specimen, but that if the person submits to the taking of the specimen and an analysis of the specimen shows that the person had an alcohol concentration less than the level specified by Chapter 49, Penal Code, the person may be subject to criminal penalties less severe than those provided under that chapter. Tex. Transp. Code Ann. § 724.015(4) (Vernon Supp. 2009). 272 (appellate cause no. 10-08-00058-CR). He similarly claims in his third point[10] that the judgment of conviction for criminal solicitation should be vacated because the conduct relied on to prove this offense was subsumed by the conduct relied on to prove indecency by exposure under trial court cause no. 07-01491-CRF-272 (appellate cause no. 10-09-00156-CR). Lancaster places primary reliance on Patterson v. State, 152 S.W.3d 88 (Tex. Crim. App. 2004). There the Court of Criminal Appeals explained that, although the Legislature has authorized multiple punishments for the repeated commission of such crimes against a child during a single criminal episode, “there is nothing in the language [of the pertinent statutes] to suggest that it intended to authorize ‘stop-action’ prosecution.” Id. at 92. Just as a conviction for a completed offense bars prosecution for an attempt to commit the same offense, a conviction for an offense set out in § 3.03 bars conviction for conduct that, on the facts of the case, is demonstrably part of the commission of the greater offense. For example, indecency by genital exposure of oneself in the course of manual penetration of another are separate offenses, while penile contact with mouth, genitals, or anus in the course of penile penetration will be subsumed. Id. As we have explained, however, if the evidence shows the commission of distinct offenses based on different (albeit similar) conduct, then the conduct which serves as the basis for one of the offenses necessarily cannot be subsumed in the conduct which serves as the basis for commission of the other(s). See Hanson, 180 S.W.3d at 732-33. In addressing Lancaster’s first point, we explained how State’s Exhibit No. 130 depicts the commission of factually distinct offenses which provide a separate evidentiary basis for each of the convictions he challenged in his first point and again challenges in his second point. Because this evidence establishes the commission of at least seven “distinct and separate offenses,” his prosecution for the challenged convictions is not barred under the principles enunciated in Patterson. Id. Thus, we overrule Lancaster’s second point. In his third point, Lancaster similarly contends that the conduct relied on to prove criminal solicitation is barred under Patterson because it is subsumed within the conduct relied on to prove indecency by exposure. The indictment count for criminal solicitation alleges that Lancaster, with intent that sexual performance by a child be committed, induced K.C. to allow him to photograph her vagina. The indictment for indecency by exposure (the sole count in that case) alleges that he exposed his genitals to K.C. with the requisite intent. In Patterson, the Court cited as an example of an offense which is not subsumed indecency by genital exposure committed in the course of aggravated sexual assault by manual penetration. See Patterson, 152 S.W.3d at 92. In the same manner, we hold that a person soliciting a child to permit him to photograph her vagina is not subsumed within the act of the person exposing his genitals to the child, even if done at the same time. Id.; Hanson, 180 S.W.3d at 732-33. Thus, we overrule Lancaster’s third point. Voir Dire Lancaster contends in his seventh point[11] that the court abused its discretion by refusing to permit him to ask during voir dire whether the jurors could be fair and impartial in a hypothetical case involving sexual molestation of children. We address this issue in the other opinion we have issued today in appellate cause nos. 10-08-00025-CR, 10-08-00027-CR, 10-08-00028-CR, 10-08-00029-CR, and 10-08-00030-CR. We hold that the court abused its discretion by refusing to permit him to ask the question but this error, beyond a reasonable doubt, did not contribute to his conviction. See Lancaster v. State, No. 10-08-00025-CR, slip op. at 4-6 (Tex. App.—Waco May 26, 2009, no pet. h.). Thus, we overrule Lancaster’s seventh point. Improper Argument Lancaster contends in his fourth point[12] that the court abused its discretion by overruling his objection that the prosecutor’s argument during the punishment phase struck at him over the shoulders of defense counsel. There are four categories of permissible jury argument: (1) summation of the evidence; (2) reasonable deduction from the evidence; (3) an answer to the argument of opposing counsel; or (4) a plea for law enforcement. Gallo v. State, 239 S.W.3d 757, 767 (Tex. Crim. App. 2007). The State may not strike at a defendant over the shoulders of defense counsel or accuse counsel of bad faith or insincerity during argument. See id.; Harris v. State, 122 S.W.3d 871, 886 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2003, pet. ref’d). During closing, defense counsel discussed the impact of Lancaster’s convictions on his family, career and personal life. Counsel urged the jury to show mercy in assessing punishment. In rebuttal, the State reminded the jury that Lancaster’s actions had impacted the lives of several children and their families. After addressing this for a few moments, the State talked further about Lancaster. STATE: Now, I want to talk about the defendant, too; but I also want to make sure we understand the context in which we are talking about the defendant. Mr. Banks said a very important thing. He said, “You know, the first time that I went up to the jail, I expected to meet a pervert, to hate him, to be angry; but when I met him, oh, he was a nice guy, good at his job, salvageable. There’s something good about him.” You heard from their own witness, Charlie Russ, about the concept of grooming. That is the stock and trade of the child molester, of the pedophile. It is—and listen very carefully, because you are being victimized in exactly the same way—gain your trust and violate it. Gain your trust and then violate it. And that’s what they are trying to do to you. That’s what this defense is about. They are grooming the jury to try and have you think about anything other than the victims in this case— DEFENSE: Judge, I object. That is striking at the defendant over the remarks of counsel. The State responded that the argument was invited. The court overruled the objection. We assume without deciding that the argument was improper. See Mosley v. State, 983 S.W.2d 249, 258 (Tex. Crim. App. 1998) (“The comments in the present case are milder, merely indicating that the defense attorneys would attempt to use argument to divert the jury’s attention or obscure the issues.”); Graves v. State, 176 S.W.3d 422, 430 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2004, no pet.); Brantley v. State, 48 S.W.3d 318, 330 (Tex. App.—Waco 2001, pet. ref’d); but cf. Pope v. State, 161 S.W.3d 114, 126-27 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2004) (finding similar remarks “were not suggestive of bad faith or insincerity on the part of opposing counsel, but were responsive to arguments of the defense and therefore not improper”), aff’d, 207 S.W.3d 352 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006). To determine whether this error requires reversal, we consider: (1) the severity of the misconduct; (2) the measures adopted to cure the misconduct; and, (3) the certainty of the punishment assessed absent the misconduct. See Archie v. State, 221 S.W.3d 695, 700 (Tex. Crim. App. 2007); Martinez v. State, 17 S.W.3d 677, 692-93 (Tex. Crim. App. 2000); Searcy v. State, 231 S.W.3d 539, 548 (Tex. App.—Texarkana 2007, pet. ref’d). The challenged argument was at worst mildly inappropriate, so the first factor does not weigh heavily in Lancaster’s favor. See Mosley, 983 S.W.2d at 260; Graves, 176 S.W.3d at 430; Brantley, 48 S.W.3d at 331. The second factor does not come into play because the court merely overruled Lancaster’s objection, so this factor weighs in his favor. See Brantley, 48 S.W.3d at 331. Regarding the third factor, the jury assessed the maximum punishment for each count. However, Lancaster pleaded guilty to each count, and the State presented overwhelming evidence of his guilt in addition to extraneous-offense evidence revealing his guilt of numerous similar offenses for which he was not indicted. Thus, the third factor weighs heavily in favor of the State because “it is likely that the same punishment would have been assessed regardless of the improper [argument].” Archie, 221 S.W.3d at 700 (quoting Archie v. State, 181 S.W.3d 428, 432 (Tex. App.—Waco 2005)); see Martinez, 17 S.W.3d at 693; Mosley, 983 S.W.2d at 260; Searcy, 231 S.W.3d at 550. Given the mildness of the challenged argument and the overwhelming evidence supporting the punishment assessed, we hold that any error was harmless. See Martinez, 17 S.W.3d at 694; Mosley, 983 S.W.2d at 260; Searcy, 231 S.W.3d at 550. Accordingly, we overrule Lancaster’s fourth point. Judgments Nunc Pro Tunc Lancaster contends in his fifth point[13] that his right to due process was violated by the court’s entry of judgments nunc pro tunc without notice or an opportunity to be heard. He claims in his sixth point[14] that the court’s entry of the judgments nunc pro tunc constitutes the erroneous alteration of his sentences after he had commenced serving them. We address these in reverse order. At issue are Lancaster’s sentences for five counts of indecency by contact, a single count of indecency by exposure, and a single count of criminal solicitation. The court ordered that Lancaster’s sentences for indecency by exposure, criminal solicitation, and one count of indecency by contact run concurrently beginning with the date of imposition of sentence, November 19, 2007. The sentences for the other four counts of indecency by contact were to run consecutively thereafter. The court signed the judgments on November 28. These judgments recited the concurrent and consecutive sentences by specifying the cause numbers and counts which were to run concurrently or consecutively. For example, the judgment in trial court cause no. 07-01491-CRF-272 provided in pertinent part: The Court ORDERS that the sentence in this conviction shall run concurrently with the following judgments and sentences: Brazos County cause number 07-01489-CRF-272 (Count One), with the date of sentence imposed being November 19, 2007; and Brazos County cause number 07-01489-CRF-272 (Count Two), with the date of sentence imposed being November 19, 2007. On January 2, 2008, the court signed judgments nunc pro tunc for each count, specifying the offense of conviction for each cause number recited in the concurrent/consecutive sentencing paragraph. For example, the judgment nunc pro tunc in trial court cause no. 07-01491-CRF-272 provided in pertinent part: The Court ORDERS that the sentence in this conviction shall run concurrently with the following judgments and sentences: Brazos County cause number 07-01489-CRF-272 (Count One), for the offense of Criminal Solicitaion [sic] of a Minor and with the date of sentence imposed being November 19, 2007; and Brazos County cause number 07-01489-CRF-272 (Count Two), for the offense of Indecency with a Child by Sexual Contact and with the date of sentence imposed being November 19, 2007. Lancaster’s sixth point depends on his underlying contention that the cumulation orders in the original judgments signed in November 2007 were ineffective. As the argument goes, because the cumulation orders were ineffective, his sentences ran concurrently, and the trial court had no authority to correct the ineffective cumulation orders after he began serving his sentences. However, we reject the underlying premise. The Court of Criminal Appeals has identified five recommended elements for a cumulation order: (1) the cause number of the prior conviction; (2) the name of the trial court where the prior conviction was taken; (3) the date of the prior conviction; (4) the term of years of the prior conviction; and (5) the nature of the prior conviction. Williams v. State, 675 S.W.2d 754, 763-64 (Tex. Crim. App. 1984); Strahan v. State, 306 S.W.3d 342, 352 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2010, pet. filed). The purpose of these elements is to enable prison authorities to know how long to detain the inmate. Williams, 675 S.W.2d at 764; Strahan, 306 S.W.3d at 351-52. The elements are not mandatory so long as the judgment is “’substantially and sufficiently specific,’ . . . to give notice both to the defendant and to the Department of Corrections exactly which sentences the instant sentence is cumulated with.” Williams, 675 S.W.2d at 764 (quoting Ex parte Lewis, 414 S.W.2d 682, 683 (Tex. Crim. App. 1967)); accord Strahan, 306 S.W.3d at 351-52. In fact, “a cumulation order which refers only to a prior cause number is sufficient if the order is entered in the same court as the sentence to which it is made cumulative.” Williams, 675 S.W.2d at 764; see Greer v. State, No. 03-07-00447-CR, 2008 WL 2938795, at *2 (Tex. App.—Austin July 31, 2008, pet. ref’d) (not designated for publication); Holder v. State, No. 11-01-00363-CR, 2002 WL 32344923, at *1 (Tex. App.—Eastland Oct. 10, 2002, no pet.) (per curiam) (not designated for publication). Here, the cumulation orders in the November 2007 judgments contained essentially two of the five recommended elements: (1) the cause number of the prior conviction; and (2) the date of the prior conviction. Although the cumulation orders do recite the county of the prior conviction, they do not name the particular district court[15] where the prior conviction was obtained. However, because all of Lancaster’s convictions were obtained in the 272nd District Court of Brazos County, the recitation of the cause numbers of the prior convictions is all that was required to make the cumulation orders sufficiently specific. Id. Therefore, because the original cumulation orders were sufficiently specific, the trial court’s decision to add more specificity by judgments nunc pro tunc after Lancaster began serving his sentences did not constitute an alteration of the sentences. Thus, we overrule Lancaster’s sixth point. Lancaster contends in his fifth point that his right to due process was violated by the court’s entry of the judgments nunc pro tunc without notice or an opportunity to be heard. We addressed a similar contention in Popp v. State, No. 10-03-00263-CR, 2004 WL 2306635 (Tex. App.—Waco Oct. 13, 2004, pet. ref’d) (not designated for publication). The purpose of a nunc pro tunc order is to have the court records correctly reflect a judgment actually rendered by the trial court. See Jones v. State, 795 S.W.2d 199, 202 (Tex. Crim. App. 1990); McGinnis v. State, 664 S.W.2d 769, 770 (Tex. App.—Amarillo 1983, pet. ref’d). The Court of Criminal Appeals has said, that before any unfavorable nunc pro tunc orders are entered, the person convicted should be given an opportunity to be present for the hearing and represented by counsel, in order to accord him due process of law. Shaw v. State, 539 S.W.2d 887, 890 (Tex. Crim. App. 1976). But more recently, the Court has said that if the trial court properly changed the order, remanding for a hearing would be a “useless task.” Homan v. Hughes, 708 S.W.2d 449, 454-455 (Tex. Crim. App. 1986). Id., 2004 WL 2306635, at *1. Sending these appeals back to the trial court for a hearing would be a “useless task.” See Homan, 708 S.W.2d at 454-55; Popp, 2004 WL 2306635, at *2. Thus, we overrule Lancaster’s fifth point. We affirm the judgments. FELIPE REYNA Justice Before Chief Justice Gray, Justice Reyna, and Justice Davis (Chief Justice Gray concurs in the Court’s judgment to the extent it affirms the trial court’s judgment. A separate opinion will not issue.) Affirmed Opinion delivered and filed May 26, 2010 Publish [CRPM] [1] Lancaster pleaded guilty to the following: (1) trial court cause no. 07-01490-CRF-272 (appellate cause no. 10-08-00026-CR)—2 counts of indecency by contact; (2) trial court cause no. 07-01489-CRF-272 (appellate cause no. 10-08-00058-CR)—1 count of criminal solicitation and 3 counts of indecency by contact; and (3) trial court cause no. 07-01491-CRF-272 (appellate cause no. 10-09-00156-CR)—1 count of indecency by exposure. [2] Lancaster was charged in trial court cause no. 07-01490-CRF-272 (counts 1 & 4) (appellate cause no. 10-08-00026-CR) with 2 counts of promotion of child pornography. These charges were severed from the 2 counts of indecency by contact referenced in note 1 and tried together with 100 counts of possession of child pornography which we address in a separate opinion being issued on the same date as this opinion in appellate cause nos. 10-08-00025-CR, 10-08-00027-CR, 10-08-00028-CR, 10-08-00029-CR, and 10-08-00030-CR. [3] Lancaster filed 2 separate briefs in appellate cause no. 10-08-00026-CR. One addresses his convictions under counts 2 and 3 for indecency by contact, to which he pleaded guilty, and the other addresses his convictions under counts 1 and 4 for promotion of child pornography, for which he was separately tried. [4] The seven points we have identified assimilate the points raised in Lancaster’s briefs. We will address the points as we have renumbered them here. As we address each point, we will indicate how Lancaster has numbered the point in his briefs (e.g., point one in cause no. 10-08-00058-CR). [5] Lancaster’s first point as renumbered consists of: (1) the first point in his brief in cause no. 10-08-00026-CR challenging the indecency by contact convictions; (2) the second point in his other brief in cause no. 10-08-00026-CR challenging the promotion of child pornography convictions; and (3) the first point in his brief in cause no. 10-08-00058-CR. [6] Both indictments alleged that these offenses were committed “on or about December 31, 2006.” However, the State is not bound by the date alleged in the indictment so long as the evidence establishes that the offense was committed before the presentment of the indictment but within the limitations period. Sledge v. State, 953 S.W.2d 253, 255-56 (Tex. Crim. App. 1997); Lane v. State, 174 S.W.3d 376, 386 n.12 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2005, pet. ref’d).
