(a) The person was arrested and booked, based upon the arresting officer’s probable cause to believe that the person arrested had committed a felony.
(b) After the arrest and booking in subdivision (a), the officer reasonably suspects that the person arrested has violated the civil provisions of the federal immigration laws.
