View this case - free  

Overview: Where an inmate's Fifth Amendment habeas claim was procedurally defaulted on independent state law grounds because the motion to suppress was not timely filed under state law, the court was precluded from reviewing the claim because the cause of the untimely filing was attributable to the inmate, and, therefore, insufficient to excuse the default.

View this case - free  

Overview: Grant of motion to suppress was reversed because under the circumstances of the stop--the 10 to 15 second crossing of the fog line, the clear daytime weather condition and the fact that there was a full lane of travel between defendant and the tow trucks, the officer had an objectively reasonable basis to believe that a violation had occurred.

View this case - free  

Overview: A district court abused its discretion in imposing a sentence to 120 months imprisonment, which amounted to eight level variance over and above a four level departure imposed on defendant for his understated criminal history pursuant to U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 4A1.3. The sentence imposed created an unreasonable disparity.
