How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding information regarding confidential informant’s observation of controlled substance at location within twenty-four to forty-eight hours of affidavit’s date, which was same date as the warrant, was not stale
  • noting that affidavit established informant’s reliability and credibility and, therefore, corroboration “was not necessary”
  • upholding trial court’s refusal to require disclosure of informant’s identity where nothing in record indicated that, when preparing and submitting affidavit, affiant did not find informant to be reliable or credible
  • “[A]lthough appellant asserts that the affidavit was unclear regarding how many confidential informants provided information, the issuing magistrate, by interpreting in a common-sense and realistic manner, could have reasonably inferred . . . that only one informant was involved.”
  • “Rule 508(c)(3) is written in discretionary terms”
