Texas Law Question:
I recently took a class over the Penal, CCP and others. One of the terms I could never get a clear definition of is "offense against the public peace".
Allow me to give you an example:
CCP
Art. 14.01. [212] [259] [247] Offense within view
(a) A peace officer or any other person, may, without a warrant,
arrest an offender when the offense is committed in his presence or
within his view, if the offense is one classed as a felony or as an offense against the public peace.
Anybody got a good definition?
