Terry vs. Ohio
We have support for this case from Lindsay and Stefan. We are likely to review it tonight and discuss it tomorrow. Please weigh in if you have any perspective on this question.
This is a repeat of a comment below that is probably more appropriate here:
I agree that Terry is interesting.
If you want a narrower issue/to access the issues of racially-motivated stops, you could also consider the Whren and Atwater decisions. Here are some solvency cites for revisiting those decisions. It's been a year, so I don't really remember if they advocate "overturn." I can email someone the cards if you're really interested (my HS camp lab worked on this aff).

Something else to consider is that there is pretty good solvency evidence for a 'congress cp.'

I always thought that Whren was a more legally interesting and more suspect case than Terry. Thats really really old gut feelings from my senior year in hs.
