California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Superior Court, 121 Cal.App.3d 395, 175 Cal.Rptr. 322 (Cal. App. 1981):

1 A plenary factual picture is necessary since the determination of probable cause must be decided in each case "... on the facts and circumstances presented to the officers at the time they were required to act." (People v. Fein (1971) 4 Cal.3d 747, 752, 94 Cal.Rptr. 607, 484 P.2d 583, and cases cited therein.)
