How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that though four-year-old information supported by an officer's expert affidavit was stale, the investigating officer reasonably relied upon the warrant
  • holding the warrant invalid because the date of the evidence was uncertain and could have been easily ascertained, but refusing to hold that evidence two to four years old is stale as a matter of law
  • finding no probable cause where com- plaint relied on stale information, but applying good-faith exception in part because complaint indicated “ongoing continuous criminal activity”
