State v. Barbernell - CCA
The State does not have to allege in the charging instrument which definition of "intoxicated" PC ยง49.01(2) the defendant is going to be prosecuted under. The definitions of "intoxicated" do not create two manners and means of
committing DWI. The conduct proscribed is the act of driving while
intoxicated. The two definitions only provide alternative means by
which the State can prove intoxication and therefore are not required
to be alleged in the charging instrument. State v. Barbernell, PD-0867-07.
