In the case of Huertas v. United States<\/em>, the defendant is requesting that the United States Supreme Court grant certiorari in his case, to address the issue of when an individual can be seized for the purposes of the Fourth Amendment.\u00a0 In order to trigger a defendant\u2019s Fourth Amendment rights, the person must be seized under the law.\u00a0 For example, a person is not automatically seized any time there is interaction with the police.\u00a0 A court will look at the circumstances of the encounter and attempt to determine if a reasonable person would not feel free to leave.\u00a0 Cases involving flight from the police raise interesting Fourth Amendment issues.<\/p>\n

By temporarily complying with the officer’s show of authority, the defendant argued that he was seized under the Fourth Amendment.\u00a0The defendant argued that since the defendant was seized, the seizure was unlawful because it was not supported by reasonable suspicion.<\/p>\n
