View this case - free  

Overview: The denial of defendant's motion to suppress in his criminal trial was improper under the Fourth Amendment because he was detained without individualized reasonable suspicion that he had committed, or was about to, commit a crime. He was going about his business and complied with requests to "step back" when told to do so.

Overview: The termination of a mother's parental rights to her child was affirmed where the trial court did not err in reviving and reinstating an original neglect and abuse petition against the mother, there was no probable value in providing her with additional process, and there was a clear showing that further attempts at reunification were futile.

View this case - free  

Overview: In sexual abuse case, N.M. Stat. Ann. § 30-9-13, because there was no independent evidence to show the corpus delicti or the trustworthiness of defendant's extrajudicial statements regarding his abuse of his daughter under the Paris rule, defendant's charges could not stand, and the court therefore erred by denying defendant's motion to dismiss.
