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

  • anonymous tip that undocumented alien named Jose working as mechanic at given address, once corroborated by agents, established sufficient reasonable suspicion to justify a stop
  • where a “clear-cut” violation of the immigration laws had occurred it was obvious that the arresting officer’s belief that the arrestee was likely to escape before a warrant could be obtained was reasonable
