Tankersley v. State

Court of Appeals of Arkansas

1Opinion of the CourtRita W. Gruber, Judge

| Manet Tankersley brings this appeal from her conditional guilty plea to first-offense driving while intoxicated. 1 She contends that the circuit court erred in denying her pretrial motion to suppress evidence of her intoxication because an informant’s uncorroborated tip about Tankersley’s illegal behavior was not sufficiently reliable to give the arresting officer reasonable suspicion to pull her over. She argues that the officer did not have reasonable suspicion to make an investigatory stop under our rules of criminal procedure. We find no error, and we affirm the conviction.
