California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Lenart, 12 Cal.Rptr.3d 592, 32 Cal.4th 1107, 88 P.3d 498 (Cal. 2004):
In reviewing a trial court's ruling on a motion to suppress evidence, we defer to that court's factual findings, express or implied, if they are supported by substantial evidence. (People v. Weaver (2001) 26 Cal.4th 876, 924, 111 Cal.Rptr.2d 2, 29 P.3d 103.) We exercise our independent judgment in determining whether, on the facts presented, the search or seizure was reasonable under the Fourth Amendment. (Ibid.)
