How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- “the peril is that the [constructive possession] doctrine may be used in narcotics prosecutions as support for preexisting suspicions rather than as an abstraction fostering fair analysis”
- drug paraphernalia and cash found in defendant’s apartment supported inference of his knowledge of drugs hidden under a pile of dirty clothes under his window on a common back porch
- ability to exercise control is apparent from the defendant’s right of access
