operator to display their driver's license to law enforcement upon request refusal is not a constitutional right it is a criminal act under Ohio statute Pennsylvania v Mims 434 US 1 0 6 1 9 7 7 Maryland v Wilson 519 U s 4 0 8 1 9 9 7 officers may lawfully order both driver and passengers out of a stopped vehicle no additional justification is required beyond the lawful stop itself hibble v Sixth Judicial District Court of Nevada 542 U S 1 7 7 2 0 0 4 The Supreme Court confirmed that states stop and identify statutes do not violate the fourth or Fifth Amendment identification requests during a lawful stop are constitutionally sound Graham v Conner 490 US three eight six one nine eight nine reasonableness of force is judged from the perspective of a reasonable officer at the moment of the decision not with the benefit of hindsight three factors govern the analysis severity of the crime immediate threat posed and whether the suspect is actively resisting applying gram to this encounter factor 1 assault under Ohio Revised Code section 2,903.13 witnessed in Plain View factor 2 intelligence confirmed a knife in the vehicle raising the threat level factor 3 sustained refusal to comply for over six minutes constitutes active resistance all three factors support the force applied Ohio Revised Code section 2,921.31 obstruction of official business a knowing act that hampers a public official in performing lawful duties sustained refusal to open a door identify oneself or comply with exit orders satisfies every element of this offence as a matter of law Ohio Revised Code Section 2,921.33 resisting arrest recklessly or by force interfering with a lawful arrest verbal claims of non resistance do not override observe physical non compliance courts assess what officers observe in real time not what a subject states lesson 1 as a motor vehicle operator identifying yourself is a legal obligation not a negotiable request invoking sovereign citizen doctrine provides no Protection and creates independent criminal liability under obstruction statutes lesson 2 officers must document all three g factors at the moment of force severity of crime level of threat and degree of resistance must each be articulated clearly in incident reports to sustain use of force review lesson 3 the presence of a minor in a vehicle does not suspend arrest authority but it does impose a duty of care on officers when selecting force options deliberate restraint to protect uninvolved parties is both tactically sound and legally significant in any subsequent use of force review
