South Dakota v. Oppermangreen2 sentences2016Vehicle inventory searches are a well-defined exception to the Fourth Amendment warrant requirement. ( Colorado v. Bertine (1987) 479 U.S. 367 , 371, 107 S.Ct. 738 , 93 L.Ed.2d 739 .)

Jackson (1996) 13 Cal.4th 1164, 1220-1221 [“A trial court’s decision on the discoverability of material in police personnel files is reviewable under an abuse of discretion standard”].) 5 Given our conclusion that the protective sweep and seizure of the gun was constitutional, we need not consider defendant’s alternative arguments that the search was not justified under the emergency aid or destruction of evidence exceptions to the Fourth Amendment warrant requirement. 11 The People contend defendant’s request is barred by his plea and the absence of a certificate of probable cause. | 1 | 1 |

People v. Ray

2 sentences2019In the initial opinion from this court, the majority upheld the entry into the garage in question under what the lead opinion in People v. Ray (1999) 21 Cal.4th 464 considered a “community caretaking” exception to the Fourth Amendment warrant requirement for the uninvited entry into one’s home. 2005Thus, there was only one search on Sunday morning, not two, and, in his suppression motion, defendant did not argue otherwise. 24 The Attorney General argues the first search was also justified by the community caretaker exception to the Fourth Amendment warrant requirement (see People v. Ray (1999) 21 Cal.4th 464 [ 88 Cal.Rptr.2d 1 , 981 P.2d 928 ]), but, as we conclude the exigent circumstances doctrine applies, we need not reach this issue. 25 Additionally, no evidence was collected during this search. | 2 | 2005–2019 |
