Ok so... Lets get something straight here about whether a cop can search your entire car when they have probable cause, or just the passenger area of the vehicle.... (probable cause in this instance will be drug paraphernalia, aka a *glass pipe*)

THE PEOPLE, Plaintiff and Respondent, v. CHARLES STEVEN ACEVEDO, Defendant and Appellant

We recognize the anomalous nature of the Ross-Chadwick dichotomy:

1: If police have probable cause to believe contraband is concealed in a particular container, they must obtain a warrant before searching it, even when it is being stored in a vehicle.

2: If the investigation has, for whatever reason, yet to focus on a particular container and there is only probable cause to believe the contraband is located somewhere in an automobile, officers may conduct a warrantless search of any container in the car that could reasonably conceal the evidence.

The first situation was described by Justice Kaus in People v. Ruggles (1985) 39 Cal. 3d 1 [216 Cal. Rptr. 88, 702 P.2d 170] as "type A" and the second "type B."

The crucial distinction is that in a type A case "officers do not have probable cause to believe the vehicle itself -- as distinguished from the container -- contains seizable material." (Id., at p. 14 (dis. opn. of Kaus, J.).)

(now skip down to this part below)

[5] The Attorney General also argues, "[s]ince the officers had probable cause to arrest appellant they had the right to search the entire car and any objects in the car."

This argument misstates the law, however, If you dont know the law, its your own fault you got burned at court!!!

So this wonderful pain in the ass program allows you to do your jail time in the comfort of your own home!!! I’m enjoying it right now as I write this piece!!!

If you are in custody and already sentenced with no active warrants/holds on your name then you too may be eligible for this program...

In most cases they do charge you for this with few exceptions and all charges due must be paid by 10 days before you complete the program... They do check your background for eligibility/suitability and of course your current charges...

The reason I put this post up however is because you don’t have to be in custody to apply!!!

If you are currently fighting a case from the street, you can go to whatever jail you will be eventually sentenced to ahead of time as you fight your case and apply for this program... I highly suggest this as your chances of getting it before your sitting in a cell already are greatly improved (mainly because it’s easier for jail staff to just keep you out since you already are out rather than deal with booking you in then out again)...

So remember this if you are truly trying to avoid jail at all costs... Most people don’t know they can apply from the streets so do it if a remand is in your future and stay positive, it’s not always going to end bad like you think it is, look at me, who would have thought I would get this s**t, lol...

Good luck people!!!

This page is pretty basic as most everything you need is on my first post that sends you to the bounce back website... but I’ll stay posting new things here as I come by more info... have a great day everyone!!!
