New York v. Belton

Justice Stevens,

concurring in the judgment.

For the reasons stated in my dissenting opinion in Robbins v. California, ante, p. 444, I agree with Justice Brennan, Justice White, Justice Marshall, Justice Blackmun, and Justice Rehnquist that these two cases should be decided in the same way, and I also agree with The Chief Justice, Justice Stewart, Justice Blackmun, Justice Powell, and Justice Rehnquist that this judgment should be reversed.
