TX1: On a remand for entry of findings of fact, a new hearing should not have been held

The court of appeals remanded this case for entering findings of fact and conclusions of law so the appeal could be decided. It was not authorized to conduct a further hearing after the record was logged, so it could not be considered. Nava v. State, 2015 Tex. App. LEXIS 11622 (Tex. App. – Houston (1st Dist.) Nov. 10, 2015).

Defendant was stopped in the midst of committing a check cashing scheme in a Walmart. He was driving a rented car. The evidence that the police developed gave them probable cause to believe the car he came in had additional evidence of the crime. Any alleged false information in the affidavit for the search warrant for the car was quite immaterial compared to the rest, so there still was probable cause. United States v. Washington, 2015 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 152349 (E.D.La. Nov. 10, 2015).*
