  • A home's curtilage is \[t]he private property immediately adjacent to a home.\
  • “Such a minor departure from the front door [when officers proceeded to the curtilage of the defendant’s property after defendant yelled ‘Don’t shoot my dog!’] does not remove the initial entry from the “knock and talk” exception to the warrant requirement.”
