Florida v. Thomas
''Florida v. Thomas'', , was a United States Supreme Court case decided in 2001. The case brought to the court concerned the extent of the Court's earlier decision in ''New York v. Belton'', concerning whether a person was in custody, a determination central to allowing evidence seized in an automobile search to be presented in trial. However, the Court unanimously dismissed the case because the decision of the Florida state courts was not "final".
==Background==
Police officers went to Robert Thomas' home, investigating possible marijuana sales at his Florida home. While this was going on, Thomas drove up to his house in his car.〔 An officer asked him for his name and identification. Thomas was arrested thereafter when a search on his license showed an outstanding warrant. One officer proceeded to take him inside the house while another searched his car, finding methamphetamine.〔 He was indicted for possession. At his trial, he moved to suppress the evidence, which was subsequently granted by the trial judge.〔 In reversing, an intermediate appellate court found the search valid under ''New York v. Belton''. In ''Belton'', the U.S. Supreme Court established a "bright-line" rule permitting an officer who has made a lawful custodial arrest of a car's occupant to search the car's passenger compartment as an incident of the arrest.〔 In reversing the intermediate court of appeals, the Florida Supreme Court held ''Belton'' did not apply because it is limited to situations where the officer initiates contact with a vehicle's occupant while that person remains in the vehicle. The Supreme Court granted review.〔〔 It would only be a few months before the ultimate decision, where they would dismiss the case.〔
