State v. Filieo
Supreme Judicial Court of Maine · Decided March 17, 1988 · Clifford, Glassman, McKusick, Nichols, Scolnik, Wathen
538 A.2d 772; 1988 Me. LEXIS 74 (Atlantic Reporter, Second Series)

State v. Filieo

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM OF DECISION.

David Filieo appeals the judgment of the Superior Court (Androscoggin County) affirming the District Court (Lewiston) judgment that he had violated 22 M.R.S.A. § 2383 (1980) (civil possession of marijuana). Contrary to Filieo’s only contention on appeal, we conclude that the motion judge’s finding that the police officer had a reasonable and articulable suspicion sufficient to justify an investigatory stop was not clearly erroneous. See State v. Cyr, 501 A.2d 1303, 1305-06 (Me. 1985); State v. Chapman, 495 A.2d 314, 317-18 (Me. 1985).

The entry is:

Judgment affirmed.

All concurring.
