How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that arrest warrant for person hiding within third person’s home does not permit police to make protective sweep once arrest is made outside that home
- police had two hours in which to obtain warrant and failure to do so prevented finding of exigent circumstances
- failure to obtain warrant when there were two hours to do so prevented a finding of exigent circumstances
- \an issue not presented in the district court will not be addressed for the first time on appeal.\
- where agents “set the timetable” for arrests, had two hours to obtain a warrant but did not, and there was no specific evidence that suspects had detected surveillance, exigent circumstances were not present
- police may not manipulate events to create exigency justifying warrantless entry
