Gordon LeMairePC for Stop
Officer spots individual previously stopped. Knows individual did not have a license on previous occassion. Is this enough to stop individual?
(I'm thinking Terry)
I would need more. Was the previous stop recent? Had the suspect never had a license? Was he an incorrigible offender? Had he not had sufficient time to get a license? Was he even entitled to a license? Even with this information, though, the justification for the stop is tenuous at best.

It seems the officer is working from nothing more than a hunch.

PHIL HALLGordon,
Your Terry theory may hold if you have good specific facts. I found a case that may help.
Williams v. State (December 14, 2006)
Tex.App. Eastland

2006 Tex. App. LEXIS 10706
Hope this helps.
