The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Johns, 891 F.2d 243 (9th Cir. 1989):

This case has an unusual and protracted history. In 1981, the district court suppressed the marijuana for failure to obtain a warrant prior to taking core samples of the suspected contraband. This court upheld the suppression, but the United States Supreme Court reversed and remanded. United States v. Johns, 707 F.2d 1093 (9th Cir.1983), rev'd, 469 U.S. 478, 105 S.Ct. 881, 83 L.Ed.2d 890 (1985).
