## How later opinions describe it (automated extraction)

- finding warrantless pat-down searches of patrons attending rock concerts unconstitutional but noting that “the City might establish less instrusive and more formal procedures for determining the presence of contraband”
- characterizing a pat-down search of concert-goers as a “high degree of intrusion”

## Opinion text

Dimmick, J.
(concurring)—I concur in the result of the majority. However, I disagree with the dictum on page 674 alluding to the doubtfulness of the defense of consent. That *677 conclusion has not been fully considered and is not necessary to the holding in this case.
