Yes
If a cop patted me down and found a scale can he search my bag with out concent?
Yes, probable cause again
Does the cop need concent to search my bad even if he found nothing on me in a pat down?
They search womens purses.......why not a bag?
If you have a bag of weed (singular bag not many bags ready to be sold) and a scale will that hold up in court for suspected dealing or could you say the scale was for personal use.
The two together is probable cause.....lawyer "may" be able to help
If I get caught with one bag of weed and have a bunch of empty dime bags on me will that hold up in court for supected dealing?
Yes! Throw a scale in there and it's a definate!
If the cop does need concent and I were to not give it what would happen? Has anyone been in this situation before ... I am assuming they do the same thing when you refuse a car search and they threaten to call out dogs.
They just place ya under arrest, do the search, and if your clean, they let ya go. Happened to a buddy of mine and the lawyer told him that "probable cause" allows this
Do you have to supply a Cop with I.D.?
