State v. Hollis

Citations

  • 2019 ND 163

Syllabus

A police officer may take an apparently intoxicated individual to a jail for detoxification if the officer determines the person constitutes a danger to himself or others. The inevitable discovery doctrine establishes that evidence derived from information obtained in an unlawful search is not inadmissible under the fruit-of-the-poisonous-tree doctrine where it is shown that the evidence would have been gained even without the unlawful action.

Judges: VandeWalle, Gerald W.
