Arrest

4.01 Probable cause

Danny Lee Carter, COA04-1712, Leslie C. Rawls
No probable cause for officers investigating a call about a man standing in the street to arrest the defendant when they went to his unlit home in the middle of the night; shone their car lights at his home to awaken him; goaded him into cursing them and then strong-armed and arrested him.

Xavier Majett, COA08-1076, Andrew DeSimone
Anonymous tip was insufficiently corroborated to establish probable cause.

Maurice Simmons, COA09-268, Glenn Gerding
When defendant responded that plastic bag in car contained "cigar guts," officer lacked probable cause to believe that the bag contained marijuana.
