Supreme Court of New Jersey June 5, 2001 (State v. Maryland)

The opinion of the Court was delivered by

COLEMAN, J.

This is a warrantless search and seizure case in which defendant contends that he was selected for questioning by the police because of his race. The trial court declined to address that claim in denying defendant’s motion to suppress evidence filed pursuant to

Rule

3:5-7, and a divided Appellate Division affirmed. We reverse.
