How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- concluding that the search of the vehicle \invaded no Fourth Amendment protection which Ragsdale could claim\
- holding that the searching officer’s individual knowledge is not the “alpha and omega” of the Fourth Amendment inquiry
- upholding vehicle search by officer lacking probable cause where partner officer on scene had probable cause and search \would have almost instantaneously gone forward\ under that officer's direction
- exclusionary rule does not apply when search \would imminently and lawfully have been made and [the evidence would have been] discovered at this very time and place and by this team of officers\ if acting officer had waited
