Holdings:

The Virginia Court made the following holding:

  • A defendant's claim that evidence was seized in violation of the Fourth Amendment presents a mixed question of law and fact that an appellate court reviews de novo on appeal. In making such a determination, the appellate court gives deference to the factual findings of the trial court, but it independently determines whether the manner in which the evidence was obtained meets the requirements of the Fourth Amendment. It is an appellant's burden to show that the trial court's denial of his motion to suppress was reversible error when considering the evidence in the light most favorable to the Commonwealth.
  • A person is "seized" within the meaning of the Fourth Amendment if, under the circumstances presented, a reasonable person would believe he was not free to leave the scene of an encounter with the police. No seizure occurs under the Fourth Amendment until the defendant fully complies with a law enforcement officer's show of authority.
