   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  08-2688
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines   
   [PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Chief Judge Loken and
   Wollman, Circuit Judges]
Criminal Case - suppression. Use of dog sniff that led to discovery of marijuana stored in defendants automobile was not the result of an unconstitutionally prolonged traffic stop. Because there was reasonable suspicion to prolong the stop for additional questioning after the basis for the initial stop had been resolved, use of dog sniff did not implicate Fourth Amendment and constituted a de minimis extension of the stop.
