P. v. Morales
This case concerns the admissibility of evidence obtained after a traffic stop. Defendant Cruz Morales argues that the stop violated Vehicle Code section 12801.5 and that marijuana found as a result of the stop should have been suppressed. The People disagree that the section was violated. As we will explain, there is no need to determine whether the stop violated the statute, since exclusion of the evidence would not have been an allowable sanction for a violation. The stop was supported by the officers reasonable suspicion that Morales was driving with an expired license, so Moraless suppression motion correctly was denied. Court affirm the judgment.
