E.D.N.C.: Mere disagreement with state court conclusion on 4A claim doesn’t overcome Stone v. Powell bar

Defendant litigated his search in state court and lost in the trial court and on appeal. He filed a habeas petition. “Petitioner’s disagreement with the ultimate disposition of his Fourth Amendment claim does not indicate he was not given a full opportunity to litigate his arguments.” Stone v. Powell bars his habeas claim. Perry v. Hooks, 2018 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 45310 (E.D. N.C. Mar. 20, 2018).

Another Playpen warrant sustained. United States v. Talley, 2018 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 43736 (W.D. La. Mar. 17, 2018).*

Attenuation from an alleged illegal stop and search applies. The inferences defendant seeks to draw on possession are more suitable for trial, not for the suppression motion. United States v. Gibson, 2018 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 44241 (N.D. Ind. Mar. 19, 2018).*
