IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS
OF TEXAS
NO. PD-350-08
THE STATE OF TEXAS
v.
RONALD HERNDON, Appellee
ON STATE’S PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW
FROM THE THIRTEENTH COURT OF APPEALS
NUECES COUNTY
J OHNSON, J., delivered the unanimous opinion of the Court.
OPINION
Appellee was convicted of driving while intoxicated. Subsequently, the trial court granted
appellee’s motion for new trial. The state appealed. The court of appeals overruled the state’s issue
and affirmed the trial court’s judgment. State v. Herndon, No. 13-02-518-CR, 2008 Tex. App.
LEXIS 919 (Tex. App. – Corpus Christi–Edinburg, delivered February 7, 2008)(not designated for
publication).
We granted state’s petition for discretionary review to consider three grounds for review that
challenged the trial court’s decision to grant appellee’s motion for new trial and the court of
appeals’s affirmance of the trial court’s judgment.
2
We have examined the record and briefs and considered the arguments in this case, and we
conclude that our decision to grant review was improvident. We therefore dismiss the state’s
petition as improvidently granted.
