Last Friday, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit weighed in on what they think constitutes a not-too-long amount of time. The court said the stopwatch starts after the citation is issued, not after the car is pulled over, and that an additional six to seven minutes is a de minimis (or insignificant) intrusion on a driver’s privacy, regardless of how long the stop lasted prior to the issuance of the citation.”
