SEARCH AND SEIZURE — Scope of stop
Police officers cannot ask questions about unrelated matters during ordinary traffic stop without an independent constitutional justification. Reversed and remanded.
The court explained that Article I, section 9 includes a subject-matter limitation, in addition to a temporal one.
Garrett, dissenting, would have held that only a temporal limitation was included in Article I, section 9.
