Does the trial court erred by denying a motion to suppress evidence found during a search of a van by law enforcement?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Lopez, E066525 (Cal. App. 2018):

Lopez argues the trial court erred by denying his motion to suppress the evidence found during the search of his van because law enforcement did not have reasonable grounds to stop him in the first place. Since the stop was unlawful, he argues, the trial court should have suppressed the fruits of the search conducted after the stop. (People v. Loewen (1983) 35 Cal.3d 117, 122-123 (Loewen).) We agree.
