State v. Collier
Annotate this CaseDefendant pleaded guilty to operating under the influence. Defendant moved to suppress all evidence obtained from the stop of his vehicle for lack of reasonable articulable suspicion. The trial court agreed that the police trooper, who followed Defendant's car into a business park and interacted with Defendant after he stopped his vehicle, lacked the required reasonable articulable suspicion. The Supreme Court vacated the portion of the trial court's decision granting Defendant's motion to suppress, holding that the lower court erred in determining that the trooper seized Defendant by following him into the park, as Defendant was not subject to physical force or show of authority. Remanded.
