Titus v. State
Annotate this CasePetitioner Gerald Titus was convicted by a jury of obstructing and hindering a police officer in the performance of his duty, driving under the influence of alcohol per se, driving while impaired by alcohol, and giving a false or fictitious name to a uniformed police officer. The Court of Special Appeals affirmed Petitioner's conviction and sentence. The Court of Appeals reversed Petitioner's conviction for obstructing and hindering, holding that the evidence presented by the State at trial with regard to this offense was insufficient to prove the necessary elements beyond a reasonable doubt because there was no evidence at trial to show how Petitioner's conduct actually obstructed or hindered a law enforcement officer in performing his duties.
