Court: Indiana Court of Appeals
Date: November 28, 2018
Author: Judge Robert Altice
County of Origin: Marion
Category: Criminal
Decision: Affirmed
Judge Brown and Judge Tavitas concur
He contends that evidence of the gun found
on his person during a traffic stop was obtained in violation of the Fourth
Amendment of the United States Constitution and Article 1, Section 11 of the
Indiana Constitution. In light of the circumstances, we conclude that the
officer conducting the stop acted reasonably, under both constitutions, in asking
Bernal-Andraca to exit the vehicle. Accordingly, the evidence was properly
admitted by the trial court.
We affirm.
