7 Cards On This Topic:

In temporary custody for curfew violation, M reasonably searched before placement in curfew center with other children; court correct in refusing to suppress marijuana and cash found.

No fed. Constitut'l provision prohibits officer from detaining juvenile arrested for misdemeanor and searching him at station; any violation of W&IC did not run afoul of 4th Amend.

M, lawfully taken into temp. custody for curfew violation, subject to full body search; that meth seized at police station rather than scene of arrest of no moment.

No probable cause to arrest for burglary a mere passenger in vehicle which contained in plain view behind driver's seat personal property which might have been stolen.

Where M's only offense is curfew violation, O abridged his 4th Amend. right by taking him to station and questioning him in manner designed to illicit incriminating responses.

Rational suspicion by officer that violation of curfew occurring sufficient for detention.

Probable cause exists to arrest for violation of constitutionally drafted curfew ordinance.
