Opinion
The defendant’s petition for certification for appeal from the Appellate Court, 25 Conn. App. 575, is granted, limited to the following issues:
“1. Whether pursuant to article first, § 7, of the Connecticut constitution, Officer Vivo’s warrantless search of the defendant’s car was unreasonable since the defendant did not have access to a weapon or the ability to destroy evidence of a crime?
“2. Whether the warrantless search of the defendant’s car could be justified under any exception to the warrant requirement found in article first, § 7, of the Connecticut constitution, especially since the defendant was restrained from reaching his vehicle, and Officer Vivo lacked any reason to justify the search?”
