DISSENTING OPINION ON STATE'S MOTION FOR REHEARING

            Without written opinion, the majority has decided to overrule the State's Motion for Rehearing.  Because I believe the State has raised a legitimate issue as to whether or not Appellee waived Article 38.23 as a basis for suppression of evidence seized pursuant to the search warrant the subject of this appeal, I would grant the State's motion to address that issue.  See Resendez v. State, No. PD-0917-08, 2009 WL 3365656, (Tex.Crim.App. Oct. 21, 2009); 2009 Tex.Crim.App. LEXIS 1439 (Tex.Crim.App. Oct. 21, 2009) (designated for publication).
