Description

The decisive issue in this case is whether the stop, which led to the arrest and conviction of defendant for driving after revocation, was justified. The district court determined that defendants evasive driving conduct immediately alter seeing a state trooper gave the trooper an objective basis for suspecting defendant of criminal wrongdoing, thereby justifying a brief limited investigative stop. The court of appeals not only disagreed but adopted a "rule" that "an evasive act alone, without other indicia of criminal activity or extreme behavior, does not justify an investigatory stop." State v. Johnson, 439 N.W.2d 400, 403 (Minn. App. 1989). We reverse the decision of the court of appeals and reinstate the judgment of conviction.
