In Caulfield the court concluded the defendant had no absolute right to enter his brother’s house because he had moved out two weeks ago and could no longer be considered an occupant. • Analysis o Dale Hawthorn’s Case Hawthorn’s case is similar to Sears, Davenport, and Caulfield as Hawthorn had quit occupying the apartment for some time (more than several days) before committing the offense.

Davenport is also similar because just like Hawthorn, the defendant in Davenport willingly gave up his key to the domicile.

Overview of Clements v. State The case of Clements v. State is an example of how the legal framework of stalking laws in Texas should be interpreted and the effectiveness of this law to ensure justice for the victims. The case depicts how the law should operate despite certain vagueness in aspects of the First Amendment. The decision of the Court of Appeals for the First District of Texas to uphold the conviction while disagreeing with some conclusions arrived at by the trial court proves that stalkers will not be allowed to slide through cracks in the legal system. The case, based on a sequence of events where the complainant, Jennifer Clements, was subject to psychological trauma accompanied by an imminent physical threat to her from Nathan Clement, her estranged husband, is a forthright condition of stalking which complies with the Statues of
