R. Scott McKeeGetts v. State
Although we now have guidance on enhancement of DWIs, it looks like we have a House floor amendment that went wrong in its 2001 amendment of 49.09(e). I encourage everyone to read this case and begin the lobbying.

JBThe question is, what are we lobbying for? The legislature needs a single clear direction from prosecutors.

R. Scott McKeeI agree with your post yesterday. Lets finally do away with the ten year rule. At least that is the advice from this humble prosecutor.

Brent RatekinHumble prosecutor??? When did you become humble Scott? I guess being married has done that to you.

R. Scott McKeeSorry Brent, I guess I should qualify "humble". I am only humble in front of my wife and a jury.
Anyway, take a look at Getz when you get a chance. Tell Mr. Downs our bantering over the proper way to read 49.09(e) has now been solved for us.
