State v. Wagner
Annotate this CaseDefendant was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Defendant filed a motion to suppress the evidence obtained during the stop of his vehicle, arguing that the officer lacked particularized suspicion for the stop. The justice court denied Defendant's motion. Defendant subsequently pleaded guilty, reserving his right to appeal the court's suppression ruling. On appeal, the district court denied Defendant's motion to suppress, finding that the officer had particularized suspicion to justify an investigative stop. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the district court did not err in denying Defendant's motion to suppress, as there were sufficient facts for the officer to form a particularized suspicion that Defendant was committing an offense and, thus, to initiate an investigative stop.
