The case was brought up to a North Carolina appeals court who, according to VOX, agreed the stop was unlawful. The case was then heard by the state’s highest court and the Supreme Court, who both ruled in favor of the officer, saying even if the officer does not know the technical aspects of a law, a search and seizure is still constitutional.
Now while this was a traffic case the implications for open carriers is horrible.

Supreme Court rules an officer’s misunderstanding of a law is protected
