Parks v. State

OPINION

Opinion by:

STEVEN C. HILBIG, Justice.

Appellant Quentin Jamal Parks was charged with unlawfully carrying a weapon. After the trial court denied Parks’s motion to suppress, he entered a no contest plea and was sentenced to one year in jail, suspended for one year, and fined $800.00. Parks appeals the judgment, arguing the trial court erred in denying the motion to suppress because the investigative detention that lead to the discovery of the weapon was not supported by reasonable suspicion. We agree, reverse the judgment, and remand the case to the trial court for further proceedings.
