221708P.pdf   03/03/2023  United States  v.  James Rutledge
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  22-1708
   U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota - Central   
   [PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Erickson and Kobes, Circuit Judges] 
   Criminal case - Criminal law. The officers had an objectively reasonable 
   basis to make a traffic stop after defendant failed to make a complete 
   stop at a stop sign; the state trooper's conclusion that the relevant 
   South Dakota statute required drivers to make a complete stop at two stop 
   signs controlling different portions of a complex highway interchange was 
   not unreasonable; the traffic stop was not unlawfully prolonged to permit 
   a drug dog sniff.
