In the Interest of G. J. S. v. State
393 So. 2d 14 | Fla. Dist. Ct. App. | 1980
The inherent nature of a mobile automobile constitutes an exigent circumstance making its search upon probable cause but without a warrant constitutionally reasonable. Chambers v. Maroney, 399 U.S. 42, 90 S.Ct. 1975, 26 L.Ed.2d 419 (1970); Carroll v. U. S., 267 U.S. 132, 45 S.Ct. 280, 69 L.Ed. 543 (1925); State v. Francoeur, 387 So.2d 1063 (Fla. 5th DCA 1980); State v. Rapp, 389 So.2d 1100 (Fla. 1st DCA 1980) [1980 F.L.W. 2075], The trial court’s denial of a motion to suppress based on its finding of probable cause comes to this court with a presumption of correctness. McNamara v. State, 357 So.2d 410, 412 (Fla.1978). Appellant has failed to overcome that presumption in this case. The final judgment and sentence is
AFFIRMED.
