New Hampshire v. Donovan
Annotate this CaseDefendant Corey Donovan appealed his conviction on a single felony count of possession of a controlled substance. He argued on appeal the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress evidence. “All of these circumstances objectively communicated to the defendant that his compliance with the officers’ requests was compelled.” The New Hampshire Supreme Court concluded defendant was seized, and that his seizure was unconstitutional, therefore the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress. Judgment was reversed and the matter remanded for further proceedings.
