AUSTIN - Texas Commission on Law Enforcement Officer Standards and Education
public information officer Laura Le Blanc, confirmed that no disciplinary
actions of suspension or revocation have been taken at this time on Precinct 1

scene at Cardona's Mexican restaurant last April when he  reportedly asked for
his bill to be discounted because he received poor service, could face up to one
year in jail and/or a $4,000 fine.

TCLEOSE may take action pending the outcome of the criminal proceedings." Said
