Can a traffic stop be suppressed based on an officer's belief that a driver did not have a valid driver's license at the time of the stop?
This issue was addressed in Moody v. State, 842 So.2d 755 (Fla. 2003). The officer had previously met the driver however had not had contact with the driver in 2 years. The officer had not checked the status of the driving record in 3 years. The driver had been incarcerated but his suspension was for a fixed period. The driver upon release could have reinstated his license before the officer stopped him. The Court found the information the officer relied upon was stale to justify the stop. Therefore the stop was unlawful.
In contrast there are a line of Florida cases that support when information relied upon is valid however in Moody the information was no longer fresh based upon the facts.

Being the subject of a criminal investigation, detained, interviewed, interrogated, accused of a crime, and/or arrested can be overwhelming and confusing.

What are the next steps? How can I get ahead of this? What am I facing with these charges? Will I go to jail?

There may be defenses that need further investigation, potential witnesses to interview, or mitigating factors to explore.
