Document Summary
Case #1: b picks up hitchhiker, c. police pull b over for speeding, order both out. Police pat down c for weapon, find a gun in his jacket pocket, c admits is unregistered: yes, c has standing. Even though in b"s car, c was searched, he"s d, and evidence will be used against him. Police see b and c walking down street who look similar to description (not enough for arrest). Police stop both, search b"s backpack, find gun, want to introduce it at trial against c. c owns the gun: don"t be distracted by fact that c owns the gun that"s not the right question. Find drugs in couch cushion in living room; on bedside table in guest bedroom; in clyde"s backpack in hall closet. Does clyde have standing: need to know more facts about their relationship bc it says something about objective reasonableness of privacy that clyde has in living room cushion, bedside table, backpack.
