IN: Retaining defendant's drivers license meant he wasn't free to leave

FourthAmendment.com - News - Thu, 2024-11-28 13:34

Retaining defendant’s drivers license while asking pointed questions about potentially illegal conduct was a seizure because the defendant would not feel free to go. State v. Scott, 966 N.E.2d 85 (Ind. App. March 1, 2012), ordered published March 16, 2012.

Defendants failed to make a substantial preliminary showing of material falsity to get a Franks hearing. United States v. Neal, 2012 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 81849 (E.D. Tenn. April 13, 2012).*

The district court concluded that defendant’s rationale for consenting was that he hoped that the police wouldn’t find what they were looking for, but they did. That was a reasonable interpretation of the facts supported by the evidence. “That was a rational gamble, but one that Welch lost. Welch's consent was not coerced, just constrained, by having to place his bet on one of two poor alternatives. Maybe if he let them in, the police would want to get the search done quickly and fail to find his contraband. Or maybe if he put them to the trouble of getting a search warrant, they would search more thoroughly because he had inconvenienced them.” United States v. Welch, 2012 U.S. App. LEXIS 12001 (11th Cir. June 13, 2012).*

W.D.N.Y.: One has standing to challenge a search of stuff left with another during incarceration

FourthAmendment.com - News - Thu, 2024-11-28 13:34

Defendant left property with another while he was incarcerated. This was not formalized, but it was a relationship what was more than just a subjective expectation of privacy. Contrary to the government’s argument, it was not precipitous, like the cases where the defendant gave drugs to somebody to store just before the police arrived. Accordingly, the court will get to the merits of the search claim, and the government is ordered to respond. United States v. Eldridge, 2012 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 81442 (W.D. N.Y. June 12, 2012).*

Defendant’s IAC claim against defense counsel for not filing a motion to suppress is denied because the guilty plea expressly waived it. United States v. Ortiz, 2012 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 81137 (S.D. Tex. June 12, 2012).*

Defendant was stopped for alleged DUI, and made to go through a field sobriety test. She was tested for alcohol and drugs. A jury question remained on whether the officer just made it up to justify the stop. Green v. Throckmorton, 2012 U.S. App. LEXIS 11930, 2012 FED App. 0175P (6th Cir. June 13, 2012).*
