## Opinion text

FAIRCHILD, Chief Judge
(concurring).
The decisions upon which we rely discern a difference between (1) probable cause in the constitutional sense and (2) belief in the validity of the arrest, objectively determined to have been a reasonable belief. It seems to me the difference is miniscule, and I concur with reluctance.
