with 0 Comments

Officials in Riverside, California have lost faith in red light cameras after eight years of use. On Tuesday, Councilman Chris MacArthur moved to have staff draft a proposal that cancel the city's contract with Redflex Traffic Systems of Australia and bring down all fourteen cameras -- to applause in the council chambers.

Warrantless Vehicle Searches Part 2 - The “In Plain View” Doctrine

02/27/2014
with 0 Comments

This is the final part of a two-part series on warrantless vehicle searches written by NMA Texas member Ted Levitt, who is not an attorney but who has done extensive legal research on the subject. Please note that neither of these articles should be construed as legal advice.
