United States Supreme Court
J. D. B. v. North Carolina, 09-11121
In a dispute involving the significance of a custodial suspect's age in Miranda analysis, judgment of the appeals court affirming the denial of defendant's motion to suppress on the ground that defendant's age was not relevant to the determination of whether he was in custody is reversed, where a child’s age properly informs Miranda’s custody analysis.
