The authorities cannot search someone’s body, house, papers, or effects without having a good reason. Also the authorities cannot take anything from someone without a good reason. The only way a search can take place is if an officer has a good reason to believe that an individual has broken the law, therefore, he or she has the authority and right to search the individual. In addition, when it comes to searching an individual’s house a warrant must be attained by an officer before proceeding because without it they cannot gain access inside an individual’s house. This amendment protects the privacy of citizens and allows citizens the right to tell authorities no when it comes to unreasonable searches of personal belongings. Also it does not allow too many misconduct searches to take place since citizens have the right to say no. It helps establish boundaries on authorities, since they cannot invade an individual’s privacy and search their belongings whenever they want. Both citizens and authorities abide to the amendment and respect it since it protects each side for the greater good of one
