Case: Jesse James, a 20-year-old, was arrested for robbing a bank. As the officer who responded and caught the robber in the act, you are responsible for searching and arresting the suspect. You announce your presence and ask the robber to come out with his hands where you can see them. As you place him up against his car used to get to the bank for a pat-down, you note additional weapons on the seat of the car in plain view sight.

Question 1: Define the plain view doctrine, and give an example of an exception that may be considered.
Question 2: Explain and provide examples of how plain view is applied during this arrest scenario because the officer does not have an arrest warrant.
