I believe the result of the Nevada case was as follows:

You’re NOT required to give or show a police officer your ID, but you are required to tell him or her your full name if he or she asks you your name. This was the Hilbel case.

Thanks for the info! With your explanation, my memory concerning the case got a little jumpstart as well. I am pretty sure you nailed it...JFK

I got the impression that the case set forth that a state law that requires you to identify yourself when police ask you is not unconstitutional.

If your state doesn’t have such a law, the case doesn’t apply to you.
