U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 08-2934
and No: 08-2951
District of Nebraska - Lincoln
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Wollman and Riley, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - criminal law. It was objectively reasonable for the
police to suspect at the time of the traffic stop that the paper affixed to
the rear license plate area of the vehicle was not an official registration
document from another state; as a result, the officer had reasonable
suspicion to believe the vehicle did not display valid proof of registration
as required by Nebraska law and the traffic stop did not violate the Fourth
Amendment.
