Probable cause

Unreasonable search and seizure are important. Unreasonable search and seizure is a serious problem in this country because some police officers will search teenagers without a probable cause. The reason some police officers will search teenagers because they think they can, or they do not fully understand the Amendment to search and seize. This happens all over the United States and is a big problem. The right to know unreasonable search and seizure is a fundamental part of the Constitution…

the evidence against him suppressed because the police had a probable cause to suspect him. This provides another ambiguity in Dave’s case since the police had no probable cause to arrest him for the crime of importing illegal cheese. Probable cause means that there must be enough “reasonable trustworthy information… to warrant a man of reasonable caution in the belief that an offence has been or is being committed” and the probable cause in this case is unrelated to…

hearing, the probation officer ought to prove the existence of probable cause to believe that there was a violation. The standard for the probable cause is a low burden of proof for the officer (Alarid & Del, 2011). Gagnon 1 hearing is usually an informal one and held before a hearing officer. The hearing often happen in probation and parole office. The case proceeds to Gagnon II hearing after the identification of the probable cause. The person has the following rights at the Gagnon I…

In the given scenario the burden of proof and its parts were are all addressed in some way or another. The levels include a hunch, reasonable suspicion, probable cause, prima facie evidence, and proof beyond a reasonable doubt. For instance, the police had a hunch when they heard the description of the suspect. They were told that the robber was a white male, in his 20s and of the average body type. This could describe almost half of the male population, but somehow this gave the police the…

that make up the requirements for the plain view doctrine to be lawful (Hall, 2014). 1. “the officer must lawfully be in an area 2. from which the object to be seized is in plain view, and 3. the officer does in fact see the item; 4. there is probable cause to believe the object is connected to a crime, and 5. the officer has a right to access the object itself” (Hall, 2014, p.424). The first element states the officer must be lawfully present whether that is a public or private area (Hall,…

Is the Fourth Amendment violated by police action of remotely accessing a GPS or a vehicle’s tracking capabilities without a warrant or the probable cause necessary for the acquiring thereof, therefore necessitating Senator Snowy’s support of Taylor Thomas’s bill; and what would be the implications on the future of Fourth Amendment law if Senator Snowy declined to support the bill and thusly permitted the dubious practices to persist indefinitely? SHORT ANSWER Notwithstanding the current…

police had "probable cause," meaning there was reasonable basis for the officers to believe that a crime may have been committed when they heard "Some movement inside the apartment.” This justifies an exigent circumstance, where some Courts find a warrantless search or seizure completely acceptable; this is an exception to the general requirement of a warrant under the Fourth Amendment searches and seizures. Exigent circumstances occur when a law enforcement officer has probable cause and no…

The 4th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees freedom from unreasonable search and seizure. Law enforcement officers need probable cause and in most case a warrant to search a person or their belongings. Any evidence collected from an illegal search will be excluded from evidence at trial. The purpose of the 4th Amendment is to protect citizens from being abused by the government and its law enforcement agencies. Students at public education institutions are also protected against…

I say this because probable cause has a gray area. An example is an officer can say they had probable cause to search the vehicle because the suspect was acting suspiciously. The word suspiciously has such a negative impact due to the wide range that it allowed to be used. Lots of people fear the police and/or they…
