How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that a pat down search was less intrusive than reaching into the detainee’s pocket to remove an item
  • concluding the officer unreasonably expanded the permissible scope of the search when he lifted defendant's shirt after conducting a proper investigative stop and protective patdown
  • noting that an officer's knowledge that defendant was associated with a violent street gang is a relevant circumstance supporting a Terry stop and frisk
  • finding the officer's knowledge of the defendant's prior narcotics arrests and gang association in part supported an investigatory stop
  • finding the officer's knowledge of the defendant's prior 26 A-2432-16T2 narcotics arrests and gang association in part supported a reasonable suspicion of criminal activity
  • noting a defendant's reaching to his waistband as a relevant factor as this is \an area commonly used by armed persons to conceal a weapon\
