Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District / Date unavailable
STATE OF MISSOURI, Plaintiff-Respondent v. BRANDON WILLIE WALLS, Defendant-Appellant
Brandon Willie Walls was convicted of driving while intoxicated after a bench trial. On appeal, Walls argued the circuit court plainly erred by not sua sponte suppressing evidence obtained from an unlawful traffic stop, which he claimed lacked reasonable suspicion. The Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District, affirmed the conviction. The court declined plain-error review, finding that Walls failed to facially demonstrate manifest injustice because the officer's observations of traffic violations provided reasonable suspicion for the stop.
