E.D.Wis.: Parking violation justified a seizure

“The police seized defendant Devon Bean for an alleged parking violation, locating drugs and a firearm while searching his person and car. Charged with possession of a firearm as a felon, 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1), and possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1), defendant moved to suppress the contraband, arguing that the police violated his Fourth Amendment rights. The motion must be denied given the Seventh Circuit’s recent decision endorsing seizures for suspected parking violations. See United States v. Johnson, No. 15-1366, 2016 U.S. App. LEXIS 9004 (7th Cir. May 17, 2016).” United States v. Bean, 2016 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 79067 (E.D.Wis. June 17, 2016).*
