Police received an anonymous telephone tip (pay attention to it NOT being 911, see below) that Vanessa White would be leaving a described address at a given time in a brown Plymouth station wagon with a broken right taillight lens, that she would be going to Dobey's Motel, and that she would be in possession of about an ounce of cocaine inside a brown attaché case. Officers went to the address, observed a car that matched the description, saw a woman come out of the described residence at approximately the anticipated time, not carrying anything, and drive toward Dobey's Motel. Is this a good stop? |
Yes
**The U.S. Supreme Court held that this corroboration made the tip sufficiently reliable to provide reasonable suspicion to detain.
**What is required is some basis for believing that the tip is worthy of belief. Corroboration of seemingly "innocent" facts may suffice, at least when they involve predicting future behavior**
**9-1-1 calls, unlike "anonymous" calls, require a somewhat different analysis. The reason is that, today, 9-1-1 calls are not truly anonymous. They are recorded, which allows investigators or victims of a false tip to identify a caller who would be criminally liable for falsely reporting a crime. Additionally, for 9-1-1 calls from cell phones, the caller's phone number is relayed to 9-1-1 dispatchers and cell phone service carriers are required to identify a caller's geographic location. These technological and regulatory developments allow reasonable officers to rely on information reported in a 9-1-1 call. (Navarette (2014) 572 U.S. 393.)
**2020 Case Law (White (1990) 496 U.S. 325; see also Pinela-Hernandez (9th Cir. 2001) 262 F.3d 974, 978.) |

|
An officer, who could see the handle and trigger of a gun protruding from between the front seats of an illegally parked car, had a parking lot attendant unlock the vehicle so the officer could determine if the firearm was loaded. Good or bad search? Why? |
Good seizure
**If you observe illegal items in plain view, you may enter the vehicle to seize them based on an observation made from outside a vehicle, and from a position where you have a right to be. (Lomax (2010) 49 Cal.4th 530, 564.)
**Once probable cause exists to search a vehicle, no warrant is required, whether or not the vehicle is stopped on a highway or found parked on a street. (Labron (1996) 518 U.S. 938; Ross (1982) 456 U.S. 798; Overland (1988) 203 Cal.App.3d 1114.) **2020 Case law |
|
|
At 3:00 a.m. in a residential neighborhood known for burglaries and drug trafficking, an officer on routine patrol spotted two people standing next to a car parked in a particularly dark location and apparently talking to one of the occupants. When he activated his spotlight and lit up the car interior, two people inside the car ducked out of sight and one of the two people outside (Souza) took off running. The officer chased him, stopped the defendant and conducted a cursory search for weapons. During the "pat-down," a plastic baggie containing 14.5 grams of cocaine fell out of defendant's clothing. Is this a good detention/arrest? |
Yes
**The detention was lawful under the totality of the circumstances. The area's reputation, the time of night, and the suspects' efforts to avoid detection were all proper factors to consider, and together they provided reasonable suspicion of criminal activity. (Souza (1994) 9 Cal.4th 224, 240-242.)
**FLIGHT, when combined with other factors, such as a high-crime area and/or time of night, you often will have a valid basis to detain. (Smith (9th Cir. 2011) 633 F.3d 889, 893-894; Fuentes (9th Cir. 1997) 105 F.3d 487, 490
**2020 Case law |

|
If an officer yells "stop" while pointing his gun at an individual, and that person runs, is that person detained by legal definition? |
No
**Only when an individual or group SUBMIT (stop, not move) to an officers authority, will it be considered a DETENTION requiring RS for the stop.
**2020 Hodari (1991) |
|
|
Is an anonymous telephone tip that a young black man, who was standing at a described bus stop, wearing a plaid shirt, and carrying a gun, sufficient to justify a detention and patdown? |
No
**In J.L. (2000) 529 U.S. 266, the Supreme Court held that the anonymous tip was not sufficiently reliable when the tipster merely described a suspect, gave a location, and said he was carrying a gun, which was not necessarily a crime in Florida. (Compare Coulombe (2000) 86 Cal.App.4th 52.) The Court did suggest that certain anonymous reports, such as a report of a person carrying a bomb, would justify a search even without a showing of reliability given the gravity of the danger alleged in the tip. (J.L. (2002) 529 U.S. 266, 272-273.)
*2020 Case law |

|
True or false. Normally, a person has a higher reasonable expectation of privacy in his back yard than his front yard. This is because, by common sense and custom, members of the public are not normally invited into or expected to enter the back yard of an average residence. This depends, of course, on the nature of the surrounding property, whether or how it is fenced, etc. |
TRUE
Therefore, you may not normally enter the back yard to search or seize without a warrant, consent or exigent circumstances.
Example: Officer went to a house to investigate a malicious mischief matter. Seeing no one inside the house, he walked into the fenced back yard through a closed, posted but unlocked gate and found illegal marijuana. The warrantless entry was illegal. (Winters (1983) 149 Cal.App.3d 705.)
**2020 Case law
|
|
|
True or false. The general rule relating to the expectation of privacy created by the erection of walls and fences is that if, while standing in a lawful place, you can see over or through the fence or wall (1) without extraordinary effort (e.g., without using a stepladder or standing on a car or cinder block), or (2) without getting very close and "peeking," the viewing will normally not be considered a "search;" i.e, the person does not have a reasonable expectation of privacy in the area viewed. |
True **Example: An officer was told by an informant that Lovelace was growing marijuana. The officer went to the Lovelace residence and, while standing in the alley, looked through a small knothole in a six-foot-high wooden fence and saw marijuana growing. The officer then got a warrant and seized the marijuana (and other drugs in plain view). The evidence was suppressed because looking through the knothole (PEEKING) was a warrantless "search." (Lovelace (1981) 116 Cal.App.3d 541.) **2020 Case law |
|
|
True or false. Where officers enter a residence based on the imminent destruction of evidence, if the officers did not create the exigency by engaging in or threatening conduct that violated the Fourth Amendment (i.e. a made up emergency), a warrantless entry to prevent the destruction of evidence is lawful. |
True
**What this means is that an entry or search based on exigent circumstances will not be invalidated by the fact that the officers' conduct in some way "created" the exigency unless the officers' actions precipitated the exigency and those actions either violated the Fourth Amendment or threatened to do so. For example, announcing that you would break down the door if occupants did not open the door voluntarily would improperly create an exigency. BUT, just announcing "Police" and then hearing the sounds of evidence being destroyed before further announcing that you would be making entry (i.e., announcement made after the exigency arose) is valid. (King (2011) 563 U.S. 452.)

An officer detains a juvenile at night (curfew violation) and intends to transport him home to his parents. Prior to transport, the officer conducts a search even though he is not booking or incarcerating the juvenile, and finds dope. Is this a proper search? |
Yes (officer technically "detained/arrested" juvenile for curfew, so the search is incident to arrest even though there would be no booking). **Example: An officer arrested a juvenile at 1:00 a.m. for "prowling." The officer intended to drive the minor home in the patrol car and release him to his parents. The officer handcuffed the minor and searched him, finding cocaine in one of his pockets. HELD: The search was lawful based on the valid custodial arrest, even though there was no intent to book or incarcerate the minor. (Demetrius A. (1989) 208 Cal.App.3d 1245; Charles C. (1999) 76 Cal.App.4th 420, 424-425.) (Note: The same rule applies when a minor is taken into "temporary custody" for a violation of a curfew ordinance. (Giovanni B. (2007) 152 Cal.App.4th 312, 321; Ian C. (2001) 87 Cal.App.4th 856.)Example: The "arrest" of a juvenile for truancy (Ed. Code, § 48265) justified searching his backpack prior to driving him to the school a few blocks away. (Humberto O. (2000) 80 Cal.App.4th 237.) |

|
A suspect rented a motel room on a stolen credit card. What is needed to conduct a search of the room? |
Officers may immediately search (NO search warrant is needed because the suspect has NO LEGAL STANDING due to the room being rented on a stolen credit card).
I.e. Although no California court has considered the issue, federal courts have held that a hotel occupant has no expectation of privacy if he or she fails to pay the room rent due. (U.S. v. Allen (6th Cir. 1997) 106 F.3d 695, 699; U.S. v. Rahme (2d Cir. 1987) 813 F.2d 31, 34 [no expectation of privacy after rental period terminated]; U.S. v. Huffhines (9th Cir. 1992) 967 F.2d 314, 318 [same].) AND where the occupant stays beyond the occupancy period without paying the next day's rent, he or she loses the exclusive right to privacy in the room. (United States v. Larson (8th Cir. 1985) 760 F.2d 852, 854-855.)
