Search and Seizure
Stop and detention; scope
After his pretrial motion to suppress evidence was denied, Javier M. Martinez pled guilty to possessing more than 10,000 grams of marijuana with the intent to deliver, contrary to Wis. Stat. § 961.41(1m)(h)5. (2007-08). Martinez appeals, arguing that the trial court erroneously denied his suppression motion because there was no valid basis for the traffic stop and the stop was unreasonably extended. Because we conclude that the trial court’s findings of fact are not clearly erroneous and support the suppression decision, we affirm the judgment of conviction. This opinion will not be published.
