State v. Mantia
214 So. 3d 854; 2017 WL 1194926; 2017 La. LEXIS 639
(Southern Reporter, Third Series)
State v. Mantia
Opinion of the Court
I,The grant of the motion to suppress is hereby reversed and the matter is remanded for further proceedings. We find the stop was not unreasonably prolonged in violation of Rodriguez v. United States, — U.S. —, 135 S.Ct. 1609, 191 L.Ed.2d 492 (2015). Furthermore, even if the strictest reading of Rodriguez interprets a one-minute delay as an improper extension of the traffic stop, we find the officers had reasonable suspicion to justify the search.
Justice Weimer is recused.
