N.D.Ga.: USMJ’s credibility determinations on search issue aren’t subject to de novo review

The USMJ’s credibility determinations on a search issue aren’t subject to de novo review before the USDJ. United States v. Messer, 2025 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 11783 (N.D. Ga. Jan. 23, 2025).*

Collective knowledge supported reasonable suspicion here to extend the stop for a dog sniff while the officer’s own knowledge is found insufficient. (The court notes the use of the drug dog was calculated all along.) State v. Brown, 2025 Iowa Sup. LEXIS 7 (Jan. 24, 2025).*

Holding the arrestee was reasonable since she was actively resisting. Moore v. Oakland Cty., 2025 U.S. App. LEXIS 1473 (6th Cir. Jan. 23, 2025).*

The CBP agent lacked reasonable suspicion for defendant’s stop for smuggling of people. His reasonable suspicion factors at the hearing were all based on speculation. What he relied on just didn’t add up to reasonable suspicion. United States v. Ramirez-Nava, 2025 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 12672 (D. Ariz. Jan. 24, 2025).*
