Fortunately this has long been the law in Indiana.

Well, they can still plant evidence, right?

Yeah, right. Next time someone gets pulled over and refuses a search and the cops tell him/her to wait while the K-9 unit is dispatched they’ll just say “I don’t have to wait!” and then drive away. Let’s see how that turns out. :>}

Always surprising when SCOTUS rules in favor of what’s left of the Fourth Amendment.

Scalia and Roberts side with Kagan, Sotomayor, and Ginsburg. Don’t see that every day.

easily circumvented when the cop takes his time writing the traffic ticket
To: GIdget2004
So, what’s to prevent the cop from taking his time checking out the driver and registration of the car while asking for a canine unit to respond before the stop has been completed ( in this case the issuing of the warning).

That I didn’t know. Our local sheriffs dept only has 1 dog, I think. They routinely detain people until the k-9 unit arrives.

The way it will turn out is that if any evidence is found, it will be thrown out in court. So, no ... you don’t leave, your lawyer gets the evidence thrown out!

"That I didnt know. Our local sheriffs dept only has 1 dog, I think. They routinely detain people until the k-9 unit arrives."
Under Indiana law, absent probable cause, the police can detain you during a traffic stop for no longer than it takes to write the ticket and dispose of the infraction.
To: GIdget2004
Doesn't matter. If you're pulled over, and the cop wants to nail you for something, they will. And if you complain, protest, question, cite your constitutional rights, or are perceived to be uncooperative, that will just escalate the situation, and more than likely get you a beating, shot, or thrown in jail where you will be beaten, tased, and/or have the book thrown at you by the the prosecutor.
The LEO’s really do not like anyone questioning their authority.

No, you don’t argue “your case” with the cops ... your lawyer does that in court ... :-) ...
