Riley Draper v. Innovative Fibers LLC

How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that notwithstanding absence of statement attesting to credibility of informant, general corroboration by other information, including information from separate informant, was sufficient to establish probable cause.
  • finding it inappropriate to adopt a categorical rule that, in every case, probable cause exists to search a particular location simply because a suspect resides there
  • “Credibility of informants, nexus to the searched premises and to illegal activity, and the age of the information are all relevant considerations in this inquiry, but no single piece of information need satisfy every relevant consideration before we may consider it.”
  • “[p]robable cause does not require direct evidence linking a crime to a particular place. Instead, issuing judges are entitled to draw reason- able inferences about where evidence is likely to be found given the nature of the evidence and the type of offense.”
