How later courts describe this case
- holding that the arresting officer “acted reasonably in detaining Defendant for five minutes from the time he stopped Defendant ... and for an additional thirty-eight minutes while he waited for the canine unit to arrive.”
- extended detention of almost forty minutes spent waiting for a drug-sniffing dog did not violate the Fourth Amendment
