Holmes v. State - CCA
Even when a defendant does not
object to the admission of evidence seized in a search, he is still
entitled to a jury instruction under CCP art. 38.23(a). A defendant's failure to object to the admission of evidence does not
waive his right to a CCP art. 38.23 jury instruction. The defendant may
receive an instruction if the evidence raises a factual issue that is
material to the lawfulness of obtaining the evidence.
