Jimmy Paul Pickle, Appellant v. State of Arkansas, Appellee

Summary

The court held that the game officers lacked reasonable suspicion to begin a criminal investigation after completing their waterfowl-compliance inspection. The officers' subsequent warrant check, arrest, and search exceeded the scope of the administrative inspection, so the denial of suppression was reversed and the case was remanded. Justice Danielson dissented, and Justice Goodson, joined by Special Justice Pool, concurred in part and dissented in part, concluding that brief hunting-compliance checks and the warrant check were permissible.
