OH4: Arrest for violation of a statute later held unconstitutional didn’t bar trial under later version of statute

Defendant’s arrest under a statute later held unconstitutional didn’t bar him from being tried under a later version of the statute that was constitutional. State v. Bartholomew, 2020-Ohio-4611, 2020 Ohio App. LEXIS 3465 (4th Dist. Sept. 17, 2020).

The fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine doesn’t apply in § 1983 cases in the Second Circuit. Therefore, illegally seized evidence can be considered for probable cause to arrest. Smith v. Degirolamo, 2020 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 176310 (E.D. N.Y. Sept. 25, 2020).*
