Geherin Law Group Discusses Illegal Search & Seizure in Michigan
Michimich.com/10253380

ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michimich -- The Fourth Amendment prohibits the U.S. government from engaging in unreasonable searches and seizures. This means the police don't have the authority to search you, your home, your car, or your belongings without your consent, probable cause, or a search warrant.

In order to obtain a warrant, the police must proceed in good faith that is based on reliable information, and that demonstrates good cause to proceed with a search. Even with a warrant in hand, the authorities can only search the areas specified in the warrant. For example, a warrant to search your car doesn't grant the right to search your home – and vice-versa. In addition, items that are outside the scope of the warrant can only be seized if they're in plain view.

Any evidence gathered during a search and seizure that is deemed to be unreasonable is an illegal search, and can't be used against the accused. In other words, an unreasonable search and seizure can derail the prosecution's case.
