Describe the circumstances under which police officers may conduct searches or seize property legally

Sagot :

Officers must have judicial approval for warrant. Four major exceptions to the warrant requirement are:
1)Searches incident to arrest
2)Searches where an individual knowingly agrees to allow the police to search for evidence
3): Searches which necessitate a quick search of premises in the event of an emergency. However, law enforcement officers are responsible for demonstrating that a dire situation existed that justified their actions.
4): Since vehicles are inherently mobile, the chance for evidence to be moved or destroyed is greater. The courts have given police officers greater flexibility to search vehicles because of this possibility.
