My point is, an expired CHL isn't PC for a search. Granted, producing expired documentation to an officer is a bad idea, but the last thing I'd want is an officer to come back to my window, hand on holster, saying, "I KNOW YOU HAVE A CHL WHERE'S THE WEAPON!" or something...seamusTX wrote:Google Carroll v.

Either the officer had probable cause from something else, or the search was illegal. A District Attorney cannot "authorize a search" unless there's some form of probable cause, or a warrant.
OR, as I said, was my civics class now outdated?
