New limits on indoor gatherings could be hard to enforce, police say

Let’s be very clear about this:

You have an absolute right to deny entry to anyone seeking to count your houseguests without a warrant.

You can refer them to the 4th Amendment of the US Constitution:

“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated.”

And if that doesn’t work you can refer them to me.

Indoor house parties are limited to 25 people after a number of clusters broke out from the gatherings, Gov. Phil Murphy said.

We have appeared in nearly all of NJ’s 565 municipal courts. Today was our first visit to the Knowlton Court. A quaint courtroom in what looked like an old school building classroom, with court announcements written in chalk on a blackboard. Friendly court staff and genuine rural charm. On the Jersey side of the Delaware Water Gap, just a lovely part of the state.

Two Florida men with package labeled ‘Bag Full of Drugs’ arrested for drug trafficking

Ok so maybe these fellas aren’t the sharpest tools in the shed ... but hey give them credit for their honesty. Believe it or not “a bag full of drugs” bag alone wouldn’t be enough to justify a search without a warrant. Still not a very smart way to transport your drugs. 🙄

Two Florida men were arrested and charged with drug trafficking after police found a package labeled “Bag Full of Drugs” in their vehicle during a traffic stop.

LICENSE PLATE FRAME UPDATE: Last year we posted this photo related to a case in which our client was pulled over for this license plate frame. The arresting officer claimed that the plate was "obstructed" because the "N" and "J" in New Jersey were minimally covered. Crazy, right? This has been going on for years. We have been vigorously challenging these motor vehicle stops. Yesterday, the New Jersey Appellate Division agreed with our position. In the case of State v. Roman-Rosado, the court ruled that police can no longer pull over vehicles based solely on a partially obstructed license plate.

DO YOU HAVE A LICENSE PLATE FRAME? Check this out.

This is an actual photo of our client’s license plate (number obscured to protect identity). He was pulled over by police and ultimately charged with certain serious offenses. The license plate frame was the ONLY reason for the stop.

Do you think this is fair? Neither do we.

New Jersey traffic law 39:3-33 states:

“No person shall drive a motor vehicle which has a license plate frame that conceals or otherwise obscures any part of any marking imprinted upon the vehicle plate.”

Officers routinely pull over drivers for this minor violation. Check your plate and if you have one of these frames— take it off.

We are challenging the constitutionality of this stop and arguing that all charges should be dismissed.

Share this post to help a friend from getting pulled over.
