How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that parole officers need only a reasonable belief that a parole violation has occurred to arrest a parolee
- “[s]ection 4213 expressly authorizes only ‘the Commission’ to issue a parole violator ‘warrant’ and thereby provides for an administrative warrant”
- “By now it is clear that parole searches and seizures must ‘pass muster under the Fourth Amendment test of reasonableness.’”
- \We hold that neither 18 U.S.C. § 4213 nor the Fourth Amendment require an oath or affirmation for the issuance of a valid administrative warrant for the retaking of an alleged parole violator.\
