Are both Berghuis v. Thompkins and Brown v. Mississippi Supreme Court Cases?
Berghuis v. Thompkins Berghuis v. Thompkins, 560 U.S. 370 (2010) (docket 08-1470), is a decision by the United States Supreme Court in which the Court considered the position of a suspect who understands his or her right to remain silent under "Miranda v. Arizona" and is aware he or she has the right to remain silent, but does not explicitly invoke or waive the right.
New York v. Belton New York v. Belton, 453 U.S. 454 (1981) , was a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held that when a police officer has made a lawful custodial arrest of the occupant of an automobile, the officer may, as a contemporaneous incident of that arrest, search the passenger compartment of that automobile. Therefore, "Belton" extended the so-called "Chimel rule" of searches incident to a lawful arrest, established in "Chimel v. California" (1969), to vehicles. The Supreme Court sought to establish "bright line" rules to govern vehicle search incident to eliminate some confusion in the cases.
