TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE THIRD COURT OF

APPEALS:

           COMES NOW, Christopher Jaroszewicz, Appellant in the above-

styled and numbered cause, and files this his Appellant’s brief and, with

respect thereto, would show the Court the following:

                                       I. PROCEDURAL HISTORY

           Appellant	  was	  arrested	  for	  DWI	  on	  October	  11,	  2014.	  CR	  at	  42.	  	  He	  

refused	   to	   give	   a	   sample	   of	   his	   breath	   or	   blood.	   CR	   43.	   	   Appellant	   timely	  

requested	   an	   ALR	   hearing,	   pursuant	   to	   Chapter	   724	   of	   the	   Texas	  

Transportation	  Code,	  which	  was	  held	  February	  2,	  2015.	  CR	  at	  33.	  	  The	  

ALJ	  ruled	  against	  Appellant	  and	  authorized	  the	  Department	  to	  suspend	  

Appellant’s	  driver’s	  license.	  CR	  at	  16.	  	  On	  February	  19,	  2015,	  Appellant	  

timely	  appealed	  to	  the	  civil	  County	  Court	  at	  Law	  No.	  Two,	  Travis	  County,	  

Texas.	  CR	  at	  4.	  	  On	  April	  30,	  2015,	  the	  trial	  court	  took	  up	  the	  matter	  of	  

Appellant’s	  appeal.	  RR	  at	  1.	  	  Following	  the	  hearing,	  the	  trial	  court	  upheld	  

the	  ALJ	  decision	  to	  authorize	  the	  suspension	  of	  Appellant’s	  license.	  	  This	  

appeal	  followed.	  

                                 II.	  	  SUMMARY	  OF	  THE	  ARGUMENTS	  

	         The	  arresting	  officer	  did	  not	  testify	  at	  the	  ALR	  hearing.	  	  The	  only	  

evidence	   offered	   to	   establish	   reasonable	   suspicion	   that	   Appellant	   was	  


	                                                               1	  
speeding	   was	   a	   two-­‐sentence	   conclusion	   that	   Appellant	   was	   observed	  

speeding	  and	  such	  speeding	  was	  confirmed	  by	  radar.	  	  However,	  neither	  

statement	  should	  have	  been	  allowed	  in	  evidence	  but	  should	  have	  been	  

excluded.	   	   First,	   the	   Department	   offered	   no	   evidence	   to	   establish	   the	  

second	  or	  third	  prongs	  of	  Kelly	  v.	  State	  infra.	  	  As	  such	  the	  radar	  evidence	  

was	  not	  admissible	  and	  should	  have	  been	  excluded.	  	  Second,	  the	  officer’s	  

written,	   conclusory	   statement	   that	   Appellant	   was	   traveling	   at	   a	   high	  

rate	   of	   speed	   falls	   short	   of	   demonstrating	   specific	   articulable	   facts	  

coupled	   with	   logical	   inferences	   from	   those	   facts	   that	   there	   was	  

reasonable	   suspicion	   to	   justify	   the	   traffic	   stop	   for	   speeding.	   	   This	  

evidence,	  too,	  should	  have	  been	  excluded.	  

                                III.	  	  ISSUE	  ONE	  
                    WHETHER	  ERROR	  WAS	  PRESERVED?	  
                                               	  
          Appellant first addresses the Department’s contention that his

objection to the evidence was insufficient. In Zillender v. State, 557 S.W.2d

515, 517 (Tex. Crim. App. 1977) the Court of Criminal Appeals recognized

that:

          A number of exceptions to the general rule that a party cannot
          complain on appeal to the overruling of a general objection or
          an imprecise specific objection have been created . . . Thus,
          where the correct ground of exclusion was obvious to the judge
          and opposing counsel, no waiver results from a general or
          imprecise objection. [Emphasis in original.]


	                                                         2	  
       In Hill v. State, 641 S.W.2d 543 (Tex. Crim. App. 1982), the Court of

Criminal Appeals stated that a “catchall” objection “may have left

something to be desired from the standpoint of clarity,” was nevertheless

sufficient to apprise the court of the nature and basis of the defendant’s

objection. Id. at 544. In Hill the defendant made a general objection to the

admissibility of his post arrest silence after being subjected to a vigilante

arrest at gunpoint.   The Court of Criminal Appeals held that such an

objection, under the facts and circumstances of that case was sufficient to

apprise the trial court that his objection to evidence of his post-vigilante

arrest silence was based on TEX. CODE CRIM. P. art. 38.23.

       Likewise, in Samuel v. State, 688 S.W.2d 492 (Tex. Crim. App.

1985), the defendant’s objection was more of an afterthought. Counsel,

following an objection to a question as leading, stated “I’ll object to

statements made after [defendant] was under arrest.” The Court of Criminal

Appeals held that this was a sufficient objection, under the facts and

circumstances of that case, to preserve error for violating TEX. CODE CRIM.

P. art. 38.22.

       The sole issue in the present case has always been the sufficiency of

the evidence to establish reasonable suspicion to conduct a traffic stop. It

was the first of five issues to be determined by the administrative law judge

	                                   3	  
(ALJ) and the only contested issue at the administrative license revocation

(ALR) hearing. See CR at 16.1 Appellant always maintained, in one form or

another, that the only evidence concerning reasonable suspicion was not

admissible and, therefore, reasonable suspicion could not be established.

                  Counsel objected to the reasonable suspicion evidence as follows:

                  Your Honor, we would object to . . . part of the DIC-23 wherein
                  the officer states . . . his ability to determine an excessive rate
                  of speed and also wherein he states that he used radar to
                  determine the actual speed.

CR at 33-34. It is important to note that these arguments are made everyday

in ALR hearings. Counsel for the Department said as much to the trial court

judge on the initial appeal. See RR at 14. That certainly demonstrates that

counsel’s objection was not new or novel to the ALJ or the Departments

ALR prosecutor.

                  Additionally, at the time the objection was made, the ALJ was holding

Department’s Exhibit 1 in her hands. CR at 33, 42. The officer did not

testify at the ALR hearing and, thus, the sum total of evidence offered to

establish reasonable suspicion was Department’s Exhibit 1, the DIC-23. The

exhibit contained a two sentences purporting to establish reasonable

suspicion. The officer, who was the affiant, stated “Your affiant observed a

black 2013 Dodge truck . . . pass WB on W. 6th at a high rate of speed for the

30 mph zone. Your affiant measured the speed at 45 mph using Doppler

radar.” CR at 42. As a result, there were only two means of establishing

reasonable suspicion before the ALJ – observation of speed and use of radar.

Counsel objected to the admissibility of both and, hence, the sufficiency of

evidence to establish reasonable suspicion. Within the confines of an ALR

hearing, where reasonable suspicion is a, if not the, seminal issue anytime a

breath or blood test refusal is involved, such an objection is neither new, nor

novel. TEX. TRANSP. CODE § 724.042.

       To establish reasonable suspicion, an officer must have specific

articulable facts, which, based on his experience and personal knowledge,

and coupled with the logical inferences from those facts would warrant the

intrusion on the person detained. These facts must amount to more than a

mere hunch or suspicion. Williams v. State, 621 S.W.2d 609, 612 (Tex.

Crim. App. 1981).       The determination of the presence of reasonable

suspicion is a factual one and is made and reviewed by considering the

totality of the circumstances at the time of the stop. Loesch v. State, 958

S.W.2d 830, 832 (Tex. Crim. App. 1997). In other words, in terms of a

traffic stop, there must be some factual basis to conduct the stop.

                  In an ALR setting, where speeding is the legal basis for a traffic stop,

objections to this evidence are limited to the sufficiency of the factual basis

for the officer’s opinion concerning his observations of speed and to an

analysis, under Kelly v. State, 824 S.W.2d 568 (Tex. Crim. App. 1992), of

the admissibility of radar evidence used to detect the speed of a vehicle.

There are no other objections.

                  As has been said, “so long as it appears from an appellate record that

[the court and the opposing counsel understood the objection], it should not

matter to the appellate court whether the objecting party used a particular

‘form of words’—or any particular words at all, if meaning is adequately

conveyed by context.” Thomas v. State, 408 S.W.3d 877, 885 (Tex. Crim.

App. 2013). Under the facts and circumstances of the case at bar, counsel’s

objections were sufficient to apprise the ALJ and the Department’s

prosecutor of the nature and basis of counsel’s objections. See Hill supra.

“[Reviewing] courts review administrative license suspension decisions

under the substantial evidence standard.” Mireles v. Tex. Dep't of Pub.

Safety, 9 S.W.3d 128, 131 (Tex. 1999); see TEX. TRANSP. CODE § 724.047

(“Chapter 524 governs an appeal from an action of the department,

following an administrative hearing under this chapter, in suspending or

denying the issuance of a license.”); TEX. TRANSP. CODE § 524.043

(establishing rules for appeal but not defining scope of review). Courts

presume the ALJ's decision is supported by substantial evidence and the

complaining party has the burden to prove otherwise. Tex. Health Facilities

Comm'n v. Charter Med.-Dallas, Inc., 665 S.W.2d 446, 452 (Tex. 1984). In

contested cases, if more than a scintilla of evidence supports the

administrative findings, a reviewing court will affirm those findings; “[i]n

fact, an administrative decision may be sustained even if the evidence

preponderates against it.” Mireles, 9 S.W.3d at 131.              Under the

Administrative Procedure Act, reviewing courts may not substitute their

judgment for

       the judgment of the state agency on the weight of the evidence
       on questions committed to agency discretion but . . . (2) shall
       reverse or remand the case for further proceedings if substantial
       rights of the appellant have been prejudiced because the
       administrative findings, inferences, conclusions, or decisions
       are: . . . (E) not reasonably supported by substantial evidence
       considering the reliable and probative evidence in the record as
       a whole. . . .

TEX. GOV'T CODE § 2001.174. A court of appeals will review the county

civil court at law's substantial evidence review of the administrative ruling

de novo. See Tex. Dep't of Pub. Safety v. Alford, 209 S.W.3d 101, 103 (Tex.

2006) (noting that ALJ's findings of fact are entitled to deference but that

“whether there is substantial evidence to support an administrative decision

is a question of law” and as such, neither the civil county court at law’s nor

the ALJ’s determination of an issue is entitled to deference on appeal).

                           B. ISSUE TWO(a)
             Whether Evidence of Appellant’s Speed, as
             Determined by Radar, was Admissible?

       In the present case, the arresting officer did not testify. CR 33-34.

The only evidence offered to establish reasonable suspicion was the DIC-23,

which incorporated an arrest warrant affidavit. CR at 41-42. Concerning the

use of Doppler radar to determine Appellant’s speed, the only evidence

offered was a conclusory statement that “Your affiant measured the speed at

45 mph using Doppler radar.”

       The proponent of evidence based on a scientific theory must show, by

clear and convincing evidence, that the evidence is (1) reliable and (2)

relevant to assist the fact finder in fulfilling its duty. Kelly, 824 S.W.2d at

572. To be reliable, evidence derived from a scientific theory must satisfy

three criteria: (1) the underlying scientific theory much be valid; (2) the

	                                    8	  
technique applying the theory must be valid; and (3) the technique must

have been properly applied on the occasion in question. Id. at 573. This test

applies to the admissibility of radar evidence. See Ochoa v. State, 994

S.W.2d 283 (Tex. App. – El Paso 1999, no pet.); and Maysonet v. State, 91

S.W.3d 365 (Tex. App. – Texarkana 2002, pet. ref’d).

       In Ochoa, the El Paso court, contrary to most other courts of appeal,

held that all three Kelly criteria had to be met before the radar evidence in

that case could be admitted. Ochoa, 994 S.W.3d at 285. The officer testified

in Ochoa, but was unable to establish the first Kelly prong. That is to say,

the officer could not establish the validity of the underlying scientific theory

of the radar device. Id. Notably, the court held that the officer established

prongs two and three of Kelly by testifying that he had been certified to use

the hand-held radar; that he had calibrated and tested the radar instrument

the day he stopped Ochoa; and that he was able to confirm that radar guns

emit a microwave which strikes an object and returns to the gun and thus

calculates the speed of the object. Id. The El Paso court went on to hold that

admission of the radar evidence was harmless because there was other

evidence in the record to establish the defendant was speeding. Specifically,

the officer testified, without objection from Ochoa, that he observed the

defendant driving at a high rate of speed. Because there was no objection,



	                                     9	  
there was nothing preserved for review as concerned the officer’s stated

observation. Id.

       In Maysonet, the Texarkana court held that radar detection is a well-

established scientific theory and, thus, no evidence is required to establish

the first prong of Kelly. Maysonet, 91 S.W.3d at 371. That is to say, the

court of appeals held that the scientific validity of radar detection has been

established as a matter of law. Id. The officer is that case testified that he

had used radar equipment since for three years and had calibrated and tested

the radar unit a day before he stopped Maysonet for speeding. Id. at 370. He

also testified that the gun itself calculates the speed of the object based on a

signal that reflects back to the gun after bouncing off the object. Id. The

court, therefore, held that the radar evidence was admissible against

Maysonet. However, the court of appeals also stated:

       Our holding today, how ever, does not mean radar evidence
       must not undergo rigorous scrutiny under both the second and
       third prongs of the Kelly test, only that the underlying scientific
       theory of radar is valid. The State must still establish that the
       officers applied a valid technique and that it was correctly
       applied on the particular occasion in question.

Id. at 371.

       In both Ochoa and Maysonet, the courts of appeal had before them a

record containing the testimony of the arresting officers. In each case, the

officer was able to establish the second and third prongs of Kelly. In the

	                                     10	  
present case, however, the officer did not testify.                           The only evidence

concerning the radar device offered at the ALR hearing was one sentence

from the DIC-23 – “Your affiant measured the speed at 45 mph using

Doppler radar.” CR at 42. There was no evidence offered to show the

officer’s knowledge and experience of the radar unit, how it operated,

whether he calibrated the unit, or even knew how to calibrate it, whether he

tested the unit, or even knew how to test it, or how long he had been using

radar to detect speed, if ever.                In the absence of such evidence, the

Department wholly failed to establish prongs two or three of Kelly and the

radar evidence should have been excluded.

                                        C. ISSUE TWO(b)
             Whether	   a	   Non-­‐testifying	   Officer’s	   Written	  
             Legal	  Conclusion,	  that	  Appellant	  was	  Driving	  at	  
             a	  High	  Rate	  of	  Speed,	  without	  more,	  is	  Sufficient	  
             to	  Establish	  Reasonable	  Suspicion?	  

       Once again, in order to establish reasonable suspicion, an officer must

have specific articulable facts, which, based on his experience and personal

knowledge, and coupled with the logical inferences from those facts would

warrant the intrusion on the person detained. These facts must amount to

more than a mere hunch or suspicion. Williams, 621 S.W.2d at 612. The

determination of the presence of reasonable suspicion is a factual one and is

made and reviewed by considering the totality of the circumstances at the


	                                               11	  
time of the stop. Loesch, at 832. In other words, in terms of a traffic stop,

there must be some factual basis to conduct the stop.

       In the present case, the officer did testify at the ALR hearing. The

only evidence offered that Appellant was speeding was a two sentence

written statement of the arresting officer. For purposes of this issue, there

was one sentence in the DIC-23 wherein the officer wrote “Your affiant

observed [Appellant] pass WB on W. 6th St. at a high rate of speed.” CR at

42.    The record is void of any factual basis for determining whether

Appellant was traveling at a high rate of speed. There were no specific

articulable facts stated in the DIC-23. Neither was there any demonstration

of the officer’s knowledge and experience in making such a determination.

The conclusory statement amounts to nothing more than a mere hunch or

suspicion.

       The Department cites several cases where testimony from the

arresting officer, that they observed the defendant traveling at a high rate of

speed, was sufficient to establish reasonable suspicion. In each of these

cases, however, the officer actually testified.     Every case cited by the

Department has some factual basis to conclude the defendant was speeding.

The cases recite specific articulable facts, which, coupled with logical

inferences from those facts, give rise to reasonable suspicion to justify a



	                                    12	  
traffic stop. See Dillard v. State, 550 S.W.2d 45 (Tex. Crim. App.

1977)(officer testified he turned around and pursued the vehicle); Icke v.

State, 26 S.W.3d 913 (Tex. App. – Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, no pet)(officer

testified he saw vehicle driving ahead of other cars on the roadway); Nielsen

v. State, 102 S.W.3d 313 (Tex. App. – Beaumont 2003 ____)(officer

testified vehicle was speeding in the turn lane passing other vehicles); Smith

v. State, 1998 WL 46736 (Tex. App. – Dallas February 6, 1998)(not

designated for publication)(Officer testified he heard an engine racing then

observed the vehicle traveling at a high rate of speed); Heredia v. State,

2007 WL 1704952 (Tex. App. – El Paso June 14, 2007)(not designated for

publication)(officer testified he observed vehicle overtaking other vehicles

and that he paced the vehicle to determine its speed); Thomas v. State, 2007

WL 1404425 (Tex. App. – El Paso June 11, 2007)(not designated for

publication)(officer testified he was able to visually estimate the vehicle’s

speed at 60 mph in a 55 mph zone); Simpson v. State, 2008 WL 4367960

(Tex. App. – Amarillo September 25, 2008)(not designated for

publication)(officer testified that he visually estimated the vehicle was

traveling at 70 mph in a 60 mph zone); Deramus v. State, 2011 WL 582667

(Tex. App. – Fort Worth February 17, 2011)(not designated for

publication)(officer testified as to his vast experience in determining the



	                                   13	  
speed of vehicles and that he hear a loud engine noise that was coming from

the subject vehicle); Curran v. State, 2011 WL 446191 (Tex. App. –

Amarillo February 8, 2011)(not designated for publication)(officer testified

driver admitted to the officer he was speeding); Crook v. State, 2013 WL

6164058 (Tex. App. – Houston (14th Dist.] November 21, 2013)(not

designated for publication)(officer testified he observed vehicle traveling

faster than other cars on the roadway); Tex. Dep’t Pub. Safety v. Naraez,

2014 WL 5410758 (Tex. App. – Corpus Christi October 23, 2014)(not

designated for publication)(officer testified the vehicle appeared to be

traveling faster than the posted 30 mph speed limit).

       Not a single case cited above in analogous to the case at bar. As

previously stated, here the officer did not testify and the only evidence

offered to establish reasonable suspicion that Appellant was speeding, as

concerns this issue, was an unsupported written statement that Appellant

passed the officer’s location at a high rate of speed. There is no indication in

the record of the officer’s knowledge and experience or facts or inferences

drawn from facts that amount to specific articulable facts to establish the

necessary reasonable suspicion to justify the traffic stop. Therefore, this

evidence, too, should not have been admitted.

Sec. 2001.174. Review Under Substantial Evidence Rule or Undefined Scope of
Review.
  If the law authorizes review of a decision in a contested case under the substantial evidence rule or if the law does not
  define the scope of judicial review, a court may not substitute its judgment for the judgment of the state agency on the
  weight of the evidence on questions committed to agency discretion but:
       (1) may affirm the agency decision in whole or in part; and
       (2)   shall reverse or remand the case for further proceedings if substantial rights of the appellant have been
             prejudiced because the administrative findings, inferences, conclusions, or decisions are:
             (A) in violation of a constitutional or statutory provision;
             (B) in excess of the agency’s statutory authority;
             (C) made through unlawful procedure;
             (D) affected by other error of law;
             (E) not reasonably supported by substantial evidence considering the reliable and probative evidence in the
                 record as a whole; or
             (F)    arbitrary or capricious or characterized by abuse of discretion or clearly unwarranted exercise of
                   discretion.

         changes, new findings, or decisions with the reviewing court.
   (e)   A remand under this section does not stay the suspension of a driver’s license.
