#warrant-requirement

From 2021 until 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court did not decide one case involving traditional Fourth Amendment issues-such as what is a search, when is a warrant required and whether the exclusionary rule applies. I taught Criminal Procedure - Investigations in the fall semester and struggled to explain to my students why the justices seemingly had lost interest in the Fourth Amendment. But this term, there are two Fourth Amendment cases, one already decided and one to be argued this spring.
