Collin, Dallas or Denton County, Texas DWI: 4 Preliminary Motions that must be filed prior to a Texas DWI trial, and the harm that may be caused if you don’t: by Plano DWI lawyer Troy Burleson

by Collin, Dallas and Denton County DWI Attorney Troy Burleson

1. Motion to Suppress Evidence on the ground that you were unconstitutionally stopped;
2. Motion to Suppress Evidence on the grounds that there was an unconstitutional search and seizure;
3. Motion to Suppress Statements on failure to give Miranda rights;
4. Motion for Discovery of all evidence the State intends to use against you at trial.

Failure to file any of the above motions may prevent your case from being dismissed when it should have been. In addition, failing to file these motions may prevent you from being told about evidence that would tend to prove your innocence.
