Please excuse any duplicity.

People should be familiar enough with this material so that in the event of a contact with law enforcementthat goesbeyond PC 12031e, one may knowledgeably discuss the matter with the officer or deputy in a civil fashion.

Howdy A ECNALG, you and MudCamperdid a wonderful job however, please remove the Hiibel v. Sixth because it isn't applicable to our State and it is sent misinformation to everyone, especially both lazy DAs & LEOs did missing the othercases facts.

I did the searched and wrote it back in 1985. Someone stolen it and place in the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_and_Identify_statutes under the Obligations under “stop and identify” laws in State of California and I don’t mind, just let’s everyone known about this situation.

And I’m about to send this same message to MudCamper but I just notice that thread has been changed on regarding of Hiibel v. Sixth (not applicable in CA).[/i] Thank you!

The reason for citing Hiibel here is that some LE departments and and D.A.s also cite Hiibel, but as justification for demanding that the "detainee" provide his/her name. Hiibel is specific to Nevada, a state with a"stop and identify" statute. SCOTUS said:


"Although it is well established that an officer may ask a suspect to identify himself in the course of a Terry stop, it has been an open question whether the suspect can be arrested and prosecuted for refusal to answer....

"The principles of Terry permit a State to require a suspect to disclose his name in the course of a Terry stop....

"Under these principles, an officer may not arrest a suspect for failure to identify himself if the request for identification is not reasonably related to the circumstances justifying the stop. The Court noted a similar limitation in Hayes, where it suggested that Terry may permit an officer to determine a suspect's identity by compelling the suspect to submit to fingerprinting only if there is "a reasonable basis for believing that fingerprinting will establish or negate the suspect's connection with that crime." 470 U. S., at 817."
The Terry stop must of course be valid, and for that it must be based upon reasonable suspicion of a crime.

California does not have a stop-and-identify statute.

Unloaded open carry is not a public offense, thus, no crime is committed by doing so.

The fact that the officer does not know whether the detained UOC'er is in the prohibitted class should be irrelevant barring articulable reasonable suspicion of a crime.

Thus, the citation of Hiibel is an important educational tool for those who practice, or intend to practice, UOC.

I'm aware of that and thanks for posted to narrow that down and I agreed as above but like I wrote before, lazy DAs and LEOs missed that parts isn't in their memos nor or explanation of why in Hiibel v. Sixth case? Are they bothered to read it all and so is the UOC? Mostly like to read in summary just like you did it as above posted. You already got Terry v. Ohio is good enough without the Hiibel. Please just add (not applicable in CA) to getting the DA and LEO attention and let's them figure it out why and what if they missed your posted from the thousands of threads here? Also add the link I posted as above before or used from the MudCamper's link: Kolender V. Lawson ondisregarded ofHiibel v. Sixth case.

Just wanting to stop the gossip. Thanks again.

Thanks for the constructive input, Wc. And A ECNALG I still haven't gone through and made sure all of your references are in the first three post. But I will!
