Supreme Court of New Jersey May 12, 2015 (State v. Allen)

ORDER

This case involves a warrantless search. The State, therefore, must establish by a preponderance of the evidence that the search was justified under a recognized exception to the warrant requirement. See State v. Edmonds, 211 N.J. 117, 128-30, 47 A.3d 737 (2012).

The trial court made findings on remand, to which we defer. See State v. Elders, 192 N.J. 224, 243-44, 927 A.
