6. SEMINAR QUESTIONS: Examine the role of the arresting officer and some potential legal issues that may result when an arrest is effected. Examine some of the rights afforded to the individual upon arrest and discuss the nature of custody.

7. Arrests without Warrants Most common form of arrest One situation where a warrant is always required…this requirement also has an exception in it. It is not an absolute… Unless there are EXIGENT CIRCUMSTANCES or the police are in HOT PURSUIT, police officers may not enter a private home to make a warrantless arrest.

8. Arrests by Private Citizens Aka - Citizen’s Arrest Usually, the guy next door, but a security guard employed by private companies to curb shoplifters or employee thefts. Must have REASONABLE CAUSE TO BELIEVE THAT THE PERSON COMMITTED THE CRIME (eyewitness to offense) Reasonable Cause aka PROBABLE CAUSE is more than mere suspicion that the defendant committed the crime. Q = would the ordinary person believe that the crime was committed by the defendant?

9. Arrests by Police Officers Police officer/Peace officer is employed by some branch of government and is sworn to uphold the laws of his/her employer 4th amendment - requires an arrest be made with or without a warrant, but always with probable cause (probable cause to believe a crime was committed and the defendant committed it). Warrant = a written order issued by a judicial officer upon a showing of probable cause which commands the arrest of the defendant

10. Immunity from Arrest Diplomatic immunity (official, their staff and family) provides protection from arrests and tickets Consular immunity (not in Washington DC, but in every area) provides protection from most arrests; serious felonies give the police a reason to arrest the consular Legislative immunity - protection from civil process, not criminal Out Of State Witnesses - protection afforded to witnesses for criminal prosecutions.

11. Stop & Frisk Terry v. Ohio TEMPORARY DETENTION by a police officer who has REASONABLE SUSPICION that a crime is being committed, is about to be committed or has been committed. Police may stop and detain the person to question him/her and frisk the person for officer’s safety and the safety of the public

12. Territorial Jurisdiction of Officers Police officers jurisdiction is limited to his/her municipality (state or county) borders or type of crime (ie. Border patrol, game wardens, drug administrators, DEA, Homeland Security, Secret Service, Customs Service, ICE/INS However, if the officer was in HOT/FRESH PURSUIT, the officer may follow the offender into another jurisdiction to arrest

13. Citations & Summonses Citations are used in misdemeanor cases in lieu of an arrest Written notice to appear in court Frequently used in traffic court cases Names the charge Summons = judicial order to appear
