                          Cindy Camargo
                               Appellee

 On Appeal In Case Number D-1-DC-12-206451 from the 427th District
   Court of Travis County, the Hon. Jim Coronado, Judge Presiding

                Third Supplemental
               Argument & Authorities

TO THE HONORABLE THIRD COURT OF APPEALS:

    COMES NOW, Cindy Camargo, Appellee in the above styled

and numbered cause, by and through David A. Schulman and

John G. Jasuta, her undersigned attorneys of record, and

respectfully   files   this   “Third    Supplemental   Argument            &

Authorities,” and would show the Court that, on December 16,

2015, in State v. Villarreal, the Court of Criminal Appeals

                                   1
dismissed the State’s motion for rehearing as having been

improvidently granted. Thus, the Court’s original decision, State

v. Villarreal, PD-0306-14 (Tex.Cr.App.; November 26, 2014, is

now final. In its original opinion, the Court of Criminal Appeals

held that the non-consensual search of a defendant’s blood

conducted    pursuant     to     the   mandatory-blood-draw    and

implied-consent     provisions    in   the   Transportation   Code,

undertaken in the absence of a warrant or any applicable

exception to the warrant requirement, violated the Fourth

Amendment. See Villarreal, slip at 49.

    Appellee respectfully reiterates her suggestion that this case

is controlled by the Court’s original opinion in Villarreal.

Accordingly, because the State did not have a warrant and none

of the recognized exceptions apply, the trial court’s suppression

order is correct.

                               Prayer

    WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Cindy Camargo,

Appellee in the above styled and numbered cause respectfully

                                   2
prays that this Honorable Court will affirm the orders of the court

below.

                     Respectfully submitted,
