Task: Stopping Vehicle when Owner Info Reveals

Revocation

Kansas v. Glover, 140 S.Ct. 1183 (2020).

• Where registration check pre-stop reveals that registered owner’s

license is revoked, the officer may draw inference that registered
owner is the driver unless officer can observe driver and driver does

not fit DMV descriptive information i.e. owner is 21 year old, driver is
clearly elderly.

• Officer Can Make Brief Stop of Vehicle where Registered Owner’s

License is Revoked to determine if driver is the registered owner

whose license is revoked based on the reasonable suspicion from

the DMV data.
