U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 03-2501
District of Nebraska
Criminal case - criminal law. Deputy's parting of the car door's
window seal and intrusion into the area immediately below the seal falls
within the scope of a lawful search incident to arrest; once the officer saw
drug packages in the area, he had probable cause to search the entire car
without a warrant. Dissent by Judge Smith.
