Oral Argument
3/8/2016
Highlight
An investigative stop must be justified by reasonable suspicion that the person stopped is, or is about to be, engaged in criminal activity.
A search incident to arrest is a recognized exception to the search warrant requirement, and an officer making a lawful arrest may search the arrestee and an object immediately associated with the arrestee.
A search incident to arrest is not invalid simply because the search preceded the arrest so long as the arrest quickly followed the search and the fruits of the search were not needed for probable cause to arrest.
