    (Italics ours.) State v. Groth, 144 Vt. 585, 590, 481 A.2d 26, 29 (1984); see also State v. Miller, 45 Or. App. 407, 608 P.2d 595, 597 (1980). The Oregon Court of Appeals stated:

  2. State v. Smith

    66 Or. App. 516 (Or. Ct. App. 1984)   Cited 2 times

    As a threshold matter, it is clear that there was no search. Martin observed the rifle before any intrusion into the vehicle. See State v. Riley, 240 Or. 521, 523, 402 P.2d 741 (1965); State v. Miller, 45 Or. App. 407, 410, 608 P.2d 595 (1980). The dispositive issue in this case, however, is whether the seizure of the rifle meets state and federal constitutional requirements. If it does, the subsequent discovery of the pistol, on which the conviction was based, was proper.

  3. State v. McGregor

    57 Or. App. 78 (Or. Ct. App. 1982)   Cited 9 times
    In McGregor, the police stopped the defendant for questioning because they suspected that he had committed armed robbery.

    Although the underlying purpose of a search of the person following a Terry-type stop is the protection of the police officers and is, therefore, generally limited to a pat-down search for what might be weapons, circumstances may permit a more extensive intrusion. We noted in State v. Miller, 45 Or. App. 407, 410-11, 608 P.2d 595, rev den 289 Or. 275 (1980), that: In Terry v. Ohio, supra, n 2, the Court said:

Likewise, the fact that Maples "changed [his] position" and "bent down at an angle so [he] could see what was inside" Brown's car, App. 16, is irrelevant to Fourth Amendment analysis.

  5. Schuckman v. Babin

    6:23-cv-01214-HLT-BGS (D. Kan. Mar. 1, 2024)

    See, e.g., United States v. DeJear, 552 F.3d 1196, 1200-01 (10th Cir. 2009) (finding reasonable suspicion to detain where officers approached a parked vehicle in an area of criminal activity; one occupant was holding a baseball bat; and the defendant-occupant had his feet out of the vehicle, appeared very nervous, was stuffing his hands down in the back of the seat, and did not comply with officers' requests to show his hands); State v. Miller, 608 P.2d 595, 596-97 (Or. Ct. App. 1980) (finding reasonable “the officer's belief that the baseball bat could be used as a weapon to harm him” where officer saw baseball bat in vehicle after it was stopped following a high-speed chase and aggressive driving, the suspects exited the vehicle without prompting and were suspected of being intoxicated, and officers testified to experiences where bats had been used as weapons). In these cases, the presence of a baseball bat was a consideration, but it was not the only consideration as it is here.

    Holding that warrantless searches are “ per se unreasonable unless falling within one of the few specifically established and well-delineated exceptions to the warrant requirement.”

    We have been directed to numerous cases which have extended the scope of Terry beyond the person to include searches of readily accessible, yet constitutionally protected, areas for the protection of interrogating police officers. Each case involved a "stop" of a defendant on a public street while driving in an automobile. See State v. Riley, supra, (gun protruding from under front seat of automobile); State v. McGregor, supra (zippered gun case underneath automobile seat); United States v. Rainone, 586 F.2d 1132 (7th Cir 1978) (protective search of readily accessible areas of automobile); State v. Miller, 45 Or. App. 407, 608 P.2d 595, rev den, 289 Or. 275 (1980) (seizure of baseball bat from automobile). We note first that the Supreme Court distinguished early between the constitutional protections afforded a dwelling or other building and those afforded an automobile in transit on a public street.

  8. State v. Lee

    633 P.2d 48 (Utah 1981)   Cited 45 times
    In State v. Lee, Utah, 633 P.2d 48 (1981), the defendant argued in the suppression hearing that the initial viewing of stolen goods in a truck was an unlawful search.

    In that case after reviewing a number of California cases, that Court stated: See Latham v. Sullivan, Iowa App., 295 N.W.2d 472 (1980); Sumdum v. State, Alaska, 612 P.2d 1018 (1980); State v. Bennett, Hawaii, 610 P.2d 502 (1980); Pistro v. State, Alaska, 590 P.2d 884 (1979); State v. Miller, 45 Or. App. 407, 608 P.2d 595 (1980).Lorenzana v.

  9. State v. Kemp

    831 P.2d 37 (Or. Ct. App. 1992)   Cited 8 times

    Rather, the test is whether his conduct was reasonable under all of the circumstances. State v. Miller, 45 Or. App. 407, 608 P.2d 595, rev den 289 Or. 275 (1980). Because Markee's concern for his own safety justified his limited search of the front passenger area for other weapons, he was in a place where he had a right to be when he found the mirror with the powdery substance on it. That discovery, therefore, was not the result of an illegal search. If Markee's lawful discovery of the mirror gave him probable cause to arrest defendants for possession of a controlled substance, he was then justified in seizing and opening the closed, opaque bottle as part of a search incident to arrest.

  10. State v. Faulkner

    102 Or. App. 417 (Or. Ct. App. 1990)   Cited 12 times
    In Faulkner, a police officer shined a flashlight into the interior of a pickup truck at night, not as a part of an investigation, but because he was admiring the truck.

    We have previously concluded that use of a flashlight is not ipso facto, a search. State v. Berg, 60 Or. App. 142, 147, 652 P.2d 1272 (1982); State v. Miller, 45 Or. App. 407, 410, 608 P.2d 595, rev den 289 Or. 275 (1980). However, we apparently relied on a Fourth Amendment analysis and its standard of "reasonable expectation of privacy," which may since have been rejected for purposes of an Article I, section 9, analysis.
