Florida court rules odor of cannabis alone isn't enough for vehicle searches, protecting Fourth Amendment rights.
A Florida appeals court ruled that police can no longer search a vehicle based solely on the smell of cannabis, stating that the odor alone is insufficient probable cause.
The decision, issued by the 2nd District Court of Appeal, reflects changes in state law allowing medical marijuana and hemp products with trace THC.
The court emphasized that officers must have additional reasonable suspicion before conducting a search, reinforcing Fourth Amendment rights.
The ruling applies to vehicle stops and aligns with broader legal shifts in states where cannabis laws have evolved.
