The STATE of Texas, Appellant, v. Stephanie VASQUEZ, Appellee.

Court of Appeals of Texas, San Antonio.

November 27, 1996.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Edward F. Shaughnessy, III, Assistant Criminal District Attorney, San Antonio, for Appellant.

Joe A. Pina, San Antonio, for Appellee.

Before RICKHOFF, GREEN and DUNCAN, JJ.

OPINION

RICKHOFF, Justice.

The State of Texas appeals from the trial court's granting a motion to suppress due to a pretextual stop. Because the pretext doctrine has ceased to exist, we reverse and remand for trial.

FACTS

On the night of September 2, 1995, Stephanie Vasquez was stopped by two officers of the Windcrest Police Department. It is undisputed that the officers were working with the Bexar County DWI task force at the time.
