You must identify yourself to the police opfficer upon request.The following is from the link I provided at the beginning of this thread. If you believe the following to be incorrect, please explain. Further, I believe fairly recently that the US Supreme Court in a 5 to 4 decision upheld a state (not NJ) law requiring that a person being detained on an articulable suspicion furnish his/her name to the police on request. The basis for the majority opinion was that it allows the police to quickly lookup the person's record and determine if they should continue searching for someone else. I have not researched NJ law to determine if a similar law exists in NJ, but note that the case arose from the commission of an actual crime, not a legal activity such at rail photography. |
