Description
Defendant appeals his convictions for possession of marijuana with the intent to distribute, deliver, or dispense; for the
possession of amphetamines; and for the possession of cocaine. While the defendant sets out five assignments of error, they
may be categorized as embraced within the ambit of the overruling of defendant's motion to suppress for an alleged unreasonable
search and seizure. The issue in this case was previously decided adverse to the defendant in an opinion by a single member
of this court. We affirm. Defendant was operating a motor vehicle, a camper on a pickup, in the early morning hours of Saturday, November 24, 1973.
He was proceeding in an easterly direction on Interstate 80 in Keith County, Nebraska. Trooper Hollis Compton of the Nebraska
Safety Patrol, while in his official uniform, stopped defendant's vehicle for the purpose of checking his operator's license,
the vehicle registration, and the vehicle identification number. There was no other reason for the stop. Reliance to make
the stop is based solely upon section 60-435, R. R. S. 1943, which provides in part as follows: "* * * all members of the
Nebraska State Patrol * * * shall have the power * * * (4) when in uniform, to require the driver thereof to stop and exhibit
his operator's license and registration card issued for the vehicle and submit to an inspection of such vehicle, the registration
plates and registration cards thereon * * *."
