Brewer v. State (Original)
Annotate this CaseDefendant was convicted of driving while intoxicated and the court of appeals reversed the conviction, remanding for a new trial. The state petitioned for discretionary review on two grounds: Did defendant preserve his complaint for appeal and if he did, did the trial court err by commenting on his failure to testify at trial. The court held that the complaint was not preserved for appeal where none of the three complaints at issue met the requirements for preservation. Therefore, the court reversed the court of appeals' judgment and remanded the case to that court so that it could consider defendant's other claims of error.
