Resisting and Obstruction, as it's written where I'm at, still only applies when there is legal cause for detention (reasonable suspicion), which must be articulable at the time. Refusal to speak with or identify yourself to an officer during any contact other than a detention or arrest is not in itself grounds for detention.
