A nevada man with ties to eastern iowa is accusing the iowa state patrol of illegally taking his things during a traffic stop. And it happened friday, the se day the Iowa Supreme Court ruled against police seizing cash or other materials s om drivers when theyre not facing charges for related crimes. Joins us with more. Dave, are there similarities with the case decided by the state high court . Bruce, tim callahan of reno, nevada thinks there are and hes hoping to use that case to get back computers and electronics an officer seized friday. The case against robert pardee, decided by the court, hinged on an officer taking extra time during a routine traffic stop to bring in a drug dog without good suspicion of a drug crime. Callahan, who was on his way to the cedar rapids area to visit his mother, was stopped for going 62 in a 55 mile per hour zone near Council Bluffs. Llahan says the statattrooper wrote a ticket and then made him and a passenger wait for a drug dog. When the dog allegedly hit for an illegal substance, the patrol searched his vehicle. But when the search turned up no drugs, police still kept computers and other property in the car. I was shocked, i couldnt imagine what gave him the right to do that. There has to be prprperty like that. Callahan says he hired a lawyer in Council Bluffs who filed a motion in court monday to get the property back and squash any search warrant search. The nevada man says he only learned about the day, on another seizure cash, after he started investigating what to do to get his property back. Callahan admits he served time on a federal marijuana conspiracy charge in iowa back in the 1990s. And he e nders if the officer got that information during the traffic stop. Hes also asked the iowa chapter of the American Civil Liberties union for help and intends to pursue a civil case against the state for seizing his laptop, phones and ototr property. Bruce .
