People v. Robinson
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION OF THE COURT
Saxe, J.
This appeal raises the fundamental issue of when an investigative detention ripens into an arrest. Specifically, we are asked to consider whether a police officer’s initially valid stop of an individual who is suspected of a crime becomes invalid when that individual is handcuffed, involuntarily transported to the police station and placed in a barred cell for two to three hours to await a lineup. We conclude that the combination of these elements constitutes an arrest which was unlawful in the absence of probable cause.
