1Opinion of the CourtJustice Rice

¶ 1 Appellant April Stoumbaugh (April) appeals from the order of the Fifth Judicial District Court, Jefferson County, denying her motion to suppress. We affirm.

¶2 We consider the following issues on appeal:

¶3 (1) Did particularized suspicion exist to support a canine sniff of April’s vehicle?

¶4 (2) Did the District Court err by denying April’s motion to suppress statements she made to law enforcement on the grounds that she had not been given Miranda warnings and, further, had requested an attorney?

¶5 (3) Was the search warrant issued for April’s vehicle supported by probable cause?
