Alaska law, in your pocket.
Alaska criminal and traffic statutes, the Alaska decisions that interpret them, and field guides that walk the call — built from published state sources, on your phone with no signal needed. Covers AS Title 11 and AS Title 28.
STATUTE DETAIL IN THE APP
(NEW JERSEY SHOWN — STATE PACKS RENDER THE SAME)
The rules that are Alaska’s own.
Federal cases set the minimum. Alaska’s courts have their own answers — and those are the ones that control your stop, your search, your report.
Pooley v. State
Merely asking for identification does not turn a consensual encounter into a seizure if the ID is not held too long. Reasonable suspicion can justify a brief seizure of luggage to expose it to a drug-detection dog, and a dog sniff is at most a minimally intrusive search justified on reasonable suspicion.
705 P.2d 1293FULL BRIEF IN THE AK PACK →
State v. Glass
Under the Alaska Constitution’s privacy clause, police generally need a search warrant before secretly electronically recording a person’s conversation — the consent of one participant (such as an informant wearing a wire) is NOT enough.
583 P.2d 872FULL BRIEF IN THE AK PACK →
Stephan v. State
Under the Alaska Constitution’s due process clause, an unexcused failure to electronically record a custodial interrogation conducted in a place of detention, when recording is feasible, generally makes the resulting statement inadmissible.

FIELD GUIDES — STEP-BY-STEP FLOWCHARTS
The call, one decision at a time.
DV, juveniles, hospital holds, use of force, traffic — each guide walks the fork in the road with the Alaska law and procedure built in, the way an FTO would talk you through it.
Alaska paper plates, decoded.
CANNOT run as plate
AK tags cannot be queried via standard LE systems. Contact the AK DMV or the issuing dealership to authenticate.
Feel for embossed seal with silver metallic ink
Genuine seal is raised (tactile), embossed, and printed in silver metallic ink. Flat seal, matte ink, or photocopied-looking seal = counterfeit.
Heavy card stock
Substrate should feel like heavy card stock, not regular paper.
The temp-tag scanner is free for verified law enforcement — with or without a subscription. SEE HOW THE SCANNER WORKS →
Federal cases that reach every Alaska stop.
Pennsylvania v. Mimms (1977)
Ordering the driver out on a lawful stop — what it covers, and what it doesn’t.
Arizona v. Gant (2009)
Once the arrestee is secured, the automatic car search is gone. The two narrow windows that remain.
Riley v. California (2014)
Seizing the phone is one question. Searching its data is another.
Cross the line, keep the reference.
Task force, bi-state agency, or a beat near the border — every state gets the same breakdown, and the FEDERAL KIT travels with you.
