How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • noting that a search pursuant to an otherwise valid warrant could conceivably still run afoul of substantive reasonableness requirement of Fourth Amendment
  • noting that the Federal Wiretap Act was \[e]nacted in the wake of Katz v. United States \
  • noting that the Supreme Court has read Rule 41 “very broadly in view of its language”
  • declining to hold television surveillance per se unconstitutional, but recognizing its clear potential for abuse
  • relying on Title I as guide for constitutional requirements because it was \careful legislative attempt to solve a very similar problem\
  • video surveillance is even more invasive of privacy than wiretapping and bugging, just as strip search is more invasive than pat-down search
