Reasonable Suspicion – Stop – Basis – Traffic Offense – Tarrying at Stop Sign
State v. Lawrence J. Fields, 2000 WI App 218, 239 Wis.2d 38, 619 N.W.2d 279
For Fields: Daniel Goggin
Issue: Whether the police stop of a car, merely because it had lingered at a stop sign for a few seconds, was supported by reasonable suspicion.
Holding: To ask the question is to answer it. This was, at least in the cop’s mind, a case of premature evasion.
