STATE v. GERSCHOFFER

No. 71S05-0102-CR-106.

763 N.E.2d 960 (2002)

STATE of Indiana, Appellant (Plaintiff Below), v. Jarrod E. GERSCHOFFER, Appellee (Defendant Below).

Supreme Court of Indiana.

March 5, 2002.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Karen M. Freeman-Wilson, Attorney General of Indiana, Timothy W. Beam, Deputy Attorney General, Indianapolis, IN, Attorneys for Appellant.

Mark A. Kopinski, South Bend, IN, Attorney for Appellee.

ON PETITION TO TRANSFER

SHEPARD, Chief Justice.

In this case the Court of Appeals interpreted Article 1, Section 11 of the Indiana Constitution to prohibit all sobriety checkpoints as unreasonable seizures. We disagree, but affirm suppression of the evidence obtained from the roadblock in this case because the procedures followed did not satisfy the requirements of Section 11, a part of Indiana's Bill of Rights.
