FAQ

In the case of Riley v. United States (2014), the Supreme Court unanimously decided that digital data seized from warrantless search of cell phones violated the Fourth Amendment, and could not be admitted as evidence in trial.

(the Fourth Amendment provides that no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized; a search that is conducted pursuant to a warrant is presumptively reasonable whereas warrantless searches ...

Computer forensics thus fits easily into established rules governing the forensic examination of lawfully seized objects, such as drugs, blood, or clothing. Specifically, Fourth Amendment law permits law enforcement to examine lawfully seized objects forensically.

If you file a motion to suppress evidence, you are asking the judge not to allow certain evidence to be used against you in your criminal case.

The Constitution, through the Fourth Amendment, protects people from unreasonable searches and seizures by the government. The Fourth Amendment, however, is not a guarantee against all searches and seizures, but only those that are deemed unreasonable under the law.

All searches and seizures under the Fourth Amendment must be reasonable and no excessive force shall be used. Reasonableness is the ultimate measure of the constitutionality of a search or seizure. Searches and seizures with the warrant must also satisfy the reasonableness requirement.

These amendments include the fourth, fifth, sixth, eighth, and the fourteenth amendments. Their purpose is meant to ensure that people are treated fairly if suspected or arrested for crimes.

The Fourth Amendment provides safeguards during searches and detentions.Some physical rules cannot be applied to information at all, others might apply in multiple contradictory ways, and others, when applied, counter-intuitively. The Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures. It requires a warrant, based on probable cause, for searches. Virginia's laws, along with the Fourth Amendment of the US Constitution, protect citizens from unreasonable searches and seizures. The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated. The Fourth Amendment and its guarantees should not turn on the medium used to transmit private information, nor on how the information is stored. Part II argues that the physical perspective results in the most faithful application of search and seizure law to computer forensics.
