USC 4th Amd

The Fourth Amendment protects people in the United States from unreasonable searches and seizures by the government. In practice, this means: * Law enforcement generally must have probable cause before conducting a search or seizure. * In most cases, they must also obtain a warrant issued by a judge. * That warrant must specifically describe the place to be searched and the items or individuals to be seized. * The amendment forms the foundation for modern rules on search warrants, stop‑and‑frisk, surveillance, privacy rights, and protections against arbitrary arrests. These protections reflect the long‑standing principle that a person’s home and personal effects should be secure from government intrusion.
