Citation: United States v. Joyner, CASE NO: 2:15-cr-29-FtM-29MRM, 2015 WL 7752874 (M.D. Fla. Dec. 2, 2015)
Court Type: Federal District
Court: Middle District of Florida (M.D. Fla.)
Judge: Federal District Judge: John E. Steele
Rule(s): 4th Amendment
Issues:

Defendant moved to suppress evidence found during a traffic stop. The issue was whether the initial traffic stop and subsequent search and inventory of the vehicle violated Defendant’s Fourth Amendment rights.

Resolution:

The Court denied Defendant’s motion to suppress. Defendant was lawfully stopped for violating traffic laws, and the subsequent arrest for driving on a suspended license allowed authorities to search and inventory Defendant’s vehicle. Defendant’s belongings were then impounded, and a Judge granted a search warrant with sufficient particularity to look through various suspicious belongings. Therefore, there was no violation of Defendant’s Fourth Amendment rights.
