## Text. For instance, an example question in a legal context could be: "Can a police officer enter a property without a warrant in Texas?" **A more specific and common way to phrase this is through the use of a "rule statement" or "issue statement" followed by the question itself.** This structured approach helps to clearly define the legal issue you are trying to address and sets the stage for your analysis. Here's how you could phrase the same question using a rule statement and question: **Rule Statement/Issue Statement:** Under Texas law, police officers generally need a warrant to enter private property unless a specific exception applies. **Question:** Can a police officer enter a property without a warrant in Texas? This structure highlights the relevant legal principle before posing the specific question you want answered.
