• having a trained dog sniff the perimeter of the vehicle in a public place does not constitute a search
• upholding search of pretrial detainee’s cell on basis that defendant did not have an expectation of privacy in his jail cell
• no search when officers conduct dog-sniff of perimeter of car lawfully stopped in public place
• “When the dog ‘alerted positive’ for the presence of drugs, the officer was given probable cause for the search that followed.”
• drug dog’s positive alert gave officer probable cause for the ensuing search of defendant’s automobile
• because claim for damages entails determination of whether 23 officers’ alleged conduct violated plaintiff’s rights, the separate request for declaratory relief is 24 subsumed by damages action
